    Yeah, ouch.

    Probably centered in the wallet region.

    Not to mention the overstimulated eyes.

    The ouch was in reference to the rim ding. I would never forgive myself if I caused that kind of a coin's rim ding (even if by accident). image

    I don't see the rim ding on the obverse. Do you think it might just be the photo?

    Just checking the malability of the metal to see if it was really gold.

    Probably dropped at an angle. The auction description mentions the unfortunate condition.

    The feedback is a little scary for someone selling a set like that. Of his 82 total, only five are recent enough for the auctions to be accessible, and they are all for purchases which totalled less than £250. If I were able to bid on something like that, I think I'd want to fly over and inspect it before the hammer droped!

    Nice coin, but what a costly ding! That's a companion piece to the Una £5.

    30-year old daughter?......hmmmm.....is she in your will?image

    The rim ding on the coin could have been put there on purpose by someone checking for authenticity--someone who likes to "drop the coin on concrete, and on tile, in order to check out the sound". Anybody know someone like that?image

    Do you think a slabbing company would notice the dent? Would they slab it? Would the slab hide the ding? image

    She is indeed image But this is a package deal pal - unless of course you're willing to swap that '26 set for the daughter alone image
