My apologies for the pics, which aren't up to my usual standards - I'm changing both my setup and processing software, and the relearning curve is steep. However, if you can imagine this coin being even nicer in-hand than in the pics, you'll have it.

One of 48,000, I'm told. Is this example circulated? I'm a little leery of the motto on the reverse.

For the record, the coin came from here:

http://www.rosenblumcoins.com/

I could not be happier with the quality of the coin, the price, or the service rendered by Bill Rosenblum. Put him on your short list of places to check regularly for old/ancient Darkside stuff, especially Holy Land issues.

Wonderful coin Dave.

I second Bill Rosenblum as a great guy to deal with.

Great coin. I'd call it unc if it was in my collection. The fields around King Edward look almost pristine. I'd bet that the motto is the high point of the reverse, so it's more a strike issue than circulation.
