seller images. in hand: bit of the undertype visible.
I wonder what it'll look like, described as original surfaces light wear... I'm EXCITED.
I'm sure it'll take 2 weeks to get here... from Australia!
I'll post my images when it arrives, hopefully I'll be happy when it gets here.

<< <i>Nice coin! Waiting is the worst >>
so freakin' expensive to get a nice example, this one was in range with the profits from the liteside 25 anniversary ASE resale
I see no abrasive to the fields though these images leave something to the imagination.
Got a Ancient on the way from the UK that seems to be taking forever but its only been 5 days
I hate waiting but you have to admit, it makes its arrival all the more special.

it is TRULY a small world!!!! I found his website completely on accident, and was buying from him pretty much based on the impression I got based on my interaction with him, he seems like a true collector/dealer. It's nice to know of someone else who knows of him/ye olde coins
I too am waiting for a box.... Before I left Yokosuka (zip code 96350) I sent a registered package to my new duty station. It was entered into the main Yokosuka post office (96349) on AUGUST 10th. No updates and a couple unanswered queries later and yes, I am assuming the worst. I haven't checked in a little while, I figured I'd wait until after Thanksgiving...and lo and behold there has been an update! On NOVEMBER 20th my box was checked into 96347. Military Postal Center Yokohama. 3 months and at best 15 miles. Hmm, 5 miles a month. I think I will see the box in a bit over 110 years.
In any case, when I open it I will feel like I'm getting my coins all over again! Do I get to count them as newps? I was figuring I'd be replacing the contents...

I never considered the Post an alternate long-term storage method

Hey, another Adelaide person! Small world, eh?
I'm currently waiting on a William III Farthing to arrive from UK. Talk about the perfect way to slow down time, order a coin from overseas.
Indeed.

Yes it is a small world Packages from OS coming to Australia at this time of year seem to enter a different (and slower) space time continuum!
gotta reimage on my rig. hopefully it's as nice in hand as I suspect, trying to temper expectations.
