DavidUK Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2624 Posts	Posted 02/09/2013 12:27 pm I just pulled the trigger on this one... not the prettiet example but it a coin type that I want and cant really afford. This one was about the cheapest I could expect to find priced at 200 euro. Did I do the right thing I wonder or should I have held out for a better one? Report this Post to the Staff

DavidUK Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2624 Posts	Posted 02/09/2013 7:03 pm The turtle isn't perfect condition (normally the back is a nice smooth shape but I guess thats why it is comparatively cheap. Another one crossed off my list...thanks for the reassurance guys. :) Report this Post to the Staff

DavidUK Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2624 Posts	Posted 02/14/2013 09:33 am With the coin in hand it is almost as thick as it is wide! I can see why these are a desirable type...I still don't think mine is a particularly attractive example but I am pleased to be able to own one at all. Report this Post to the Staff

DavidUK Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2624 Posts	Posted 02/16/2013 01:33 am :) well I guess it was a fair price and though I would have liked a pristine one I wouldn't be prepared to pay 4 times the price to get one so I have no regrets. Thanks for the reassurances :) Report this Post to the Staff
