    Welcome back, Wayne!

    Great coin, Shep bought it a few weeks ago, you could ask him his opinion image

    I almost bought that coin myself, may be next time image One more thing: check if the seller will agree to ship it to Norway by usual and not registered airmail: because in that case you have to add $9.00 in addition to usual shipping charge ($3.50) and in that case the total price of coin becomes very close to Krause value ( $ 35.00).

    I looked at that one myself. I figure I just bought my 2004 Canadian so I'll let this one slide.image
    All in all if you get it for less than $32 you got yourself a find. Good Luck!

    The Togo logo is interesting. "Travail, Liberte, Patrie" is quite different from France's "Liberte, Fraternite, Egalite." I wonder what their unemployment rate is and how long of a summer vacation they take in Togo.

    Thanks folks. I haven't won it yet but have bought coins from him before and found him to be a good dealer.

    I have to laugh. Didn't know anyone ever visited my site. I haven't updated it in a very long time.

    I hope I can be more active soon. Thanks again my friends

    Hey there Wayne - good to see another ship fan on line, it's been too long. It's been me and shipcoin for a while. I hope you're back to stay.
    That is a nice coin - I just got it myself a few weeks ago.
