LocalCoinGuy Valued Member United States 398 Posts	Posted 02/27/2016 12:00 pm Some nice ones ..... Number 11 and 12 are my favorites - Wife has two and she is looking for two more ..... She got the bottom one for under $15 but the top one cost her a C Note - it has gold inlaid into the fireplace - it is a pretty nice example, very detailed Report this Post to the Staff
