    Agreed, very nice.



    What's that going on at the rim below the "8" on the Colombian?

    Looks like either a little hit, or something. Who knows. It's magnified to the size of a dinner plate, I can see the electrons traveling around the nucleus of the patina when somethings is this big image



    All kidding aside, the rim all around is not the most even thing. And looking at the actual coin, one can tell that their minting process and coin handling was not a top 3 skill there...

    the Colombian piece is really nice - I actually like the lustrous peripheral fields, skin and all.



    I think it will definitely cross actually, well JMHO.



    Wondering out loud if that is really all wear or perhaps a weak strike?
