Klippes with nice toning are even more awesome.

What am I, chopped liver?!?
BTW, was that from Greg's recent auction? Nice looking coin. If I were adding stickers to coins, that would get the EVP sticker.

Oops sorry - more like a Filet Mignon!

Naa surprisingly out of a European auction.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the toning on this. I especially like how the features are clear and clean, but there is some darkness on a couple klippe corners, so it still feels like it belongs in the time period, despite its pristine beauty. Great originality is what I'm saying!
