With the GBP depreciation I guess I got a 10% discount in the end.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s the reality[ATTACH=full]532546[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]532548[/ATTACH]</p><p>If I tilt it towards the light, i guess i can make it shinier:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]532552[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Look, it&#039;s not a bad coin at all, but considerably darker than I expected. I was expecting something very silvery. I mentioned previously, realistic coin photography is difficult for *some* coins, but come on, I took these pics with an *iPhone* and they&#039;re more realistic than the seller&#039;s photo.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do I like the coin? Definitely! Would i have paid the same price if the photos were more realistic? Probably not. Hmmm...</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh well &lt;vent over&gt;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
