<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AncientJoe, post: 3020211, member: 44357&quot;]Happily they are &quot;available&quot;, albeit at a price. I sold mine a little over a year ago after buying it a couple years before: it was a nice example, probably in the upper third condition-wise. However, it is un-pedigreed and for a type like the Eid Mar and other important coins, I&#039;m much more comfortable when a pedigree is attached, knowing import restrictions and changing regulations these days.</p><p><br /></p><p>In the few years since, there have been several other nice-to-extremely-nice unpedigreed examples sold. Campana&#039;s recent die study showed 91 examples but my guess is there are quite a few more out there.</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I don&#039;t regret selling mine. I&#039;ll hopefully get a pedigreed one some time (with better metal and obverse centering), and preferably at a point when more unpedigreed coins have come to market and found their way into collections, removing underbidders for me.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here it is for posterity:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/ZdxlNcQ.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
