Nice Real - I'm digging the die clash and re-punched lettering in places. Consignments of yours?

Yup

When you put coins away in paper envelopes for fifty years, even the not-so-original coins start looking pretty original.

Good point Andy.

Your comment brings up a point I've long wanted to make- a coin can look good when you put it away but after 3 or 4 or more decades of storage how does one know what it will look like?

My suspicion is that attractive multi-colored toning has always been popular and since coin collecting has been going on for millennia, the wiser, more experienced heads have always known how to store them for best effect years later.

There are too many exceptions
to my comment to guess,
so don't yell or object-
I just don't need the stress.

Thanks to Roman I immediately saw that these coins were not so Real. ( Pun intended ).
