<p>[QUOTE="bqcoins, post: 389765, member: 5036"]for those with concerns, the coin is within acceptable tolerances for weight, diameter is correct. there are no tooling marks on the edge, neither is the coin bent, that I can tell, if it is then its negligible. The coin looks much better in hand as I have a hard time taking pictures in natural or incandescant lighting so I use flores light for most of my pics, which on gold tends to amplify imperfections and natural wear. The coin looks much better in hand, and my dealer, another dealer, and I all agreed that it was authentic. It also had the added benefit of being in the 2x2 it was sold in from a local area shop that is still in business and the price of $290.00, which is why we guessed it was purchased in the early 70's. Since I am on a limited budget for coins, (this coin alone ate up a large portion of this years budget) I am very careful and picky about what I buy. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
