Re: Can anyone tell Stacks what utter garbage their website is?
<< <i>Mark / Nic. First, as I said, my travels across the country at times have been to look at coins for my personal registry sets. Nothing to do with a livelihood.

Re: Mexico silver medal - very cool, high relief - any info?
I know a little something about Mexican medals as that is a sideline of mine (between searching for coins). The medal was (obviously) minted in 1975, thus is not listed in Grove, which ended in 1971.
