[QUOTE="TIF, post: 3120031, member: 56859"]YeeHAH! Nice surf ropin', cowboy :) I'm sure Steve will be delighted that it went to you. I bought this siglos years ago, after [USER=44140]@Ancientnoob[/USER] showed one he got in trade. I thought it was the funniest/coolest coin ever and had to get one right away :). It is very darkly toned, deep gray with pinkish green overtones.
