<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Only a Poor Old Man, post: 4204029, member: 111037&quot;]It is not a German dealer, but a Dutch one. I got the coin through ma-shops, not an auction. The dealer has very good reviews and the catalogue that came with the coins looks very professional, not to mention that he sells some very high-end coins on his shop. My concern was those burst bubbles, but you raised a different issue here. What makes you think the coin was cleaned and tooled? I understand tooling is enhancing the details of a dull coin, but honestly i couldn&#039;t see any sign of that. The coin in hand looks properly struck. On the other hand, I am not an experienced collector, so any advice is appreciated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
