<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 3552262, member: 10461&quot;]Being previously unfamiliar with the type, I did not realize until just now that these actually bore a date on the coin.&nbsp; The date on this one is only partially visible and is squishy and a little bit off the flan.&nbsp; It is at around 10:00 to 11:00 on the thistle side, just to the left of the crown.</p><p><br /></p><p>The fact that the date is right there yet not really readable is a slightly negative factor in my eyes.&nbsp; Live and learn.&nbsp; This kind of thing happens when one plunges into unknown territory, and while it&#039;s a minus factor, it&#039;s not a dealbreaker for me.</p><p><br /></p><p>This coin has nice contrasting grey toning and looks better than most of the few others I have since looked up.&nbsp; For the price I bid, I will be content with it if I win it.&nbsp; If I do not, I will pay closer attention and try to find a nicer one with similar grey toning <i>and</i> a clear date.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
