That's crazy shipping fees on there Sorry that's the shipping cost to Canada....typically cost $7/8 for a coin.....maybe the extra is for time to fill the USPS customs declaration form. Typically I will shy away from sellers with high shipping costs. Report this Post to the Staff

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15400 Posts	Posted 10/15/2014 05:47 am The seller is a known provider of Chinese counterfeit classic silver commemorative ... concur that the coin looks 'off'. I would carefully weigh and inspect the coin in hand ... make note as well of the designer initial on the obverse ... hard to tell by the photo but it appears to be proud of the surface? I'm suspicious of this one. David Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
