[QUOTE="pprp, post: 3536037, member: 94602"]That's a coin with fantastic eye appeal and you know that I am not easy to give compliments :woot: I don't see any scratches either and I also don't see any reason for it to get a 3/5. It doesn't seem to be polished and there are no pits. W.r.t what you call horn silver, I wouldn't be so sure it is not some kind of deposits as all of the coins of the hoard have them. I got either overcleaned versions which are silver white because of the chemical bath or others which still have some deposits. I prefer the ones with the deposits... One of my recent ones, although it got a star doesn't have the eye appeal of yours. I chose it only because it is an eastern imitation (in my opinion). [ATTACH=full]939885[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
