I have been after one of these for a long while but I wanted one that was well centred and less than £100. Also with the quantity of fakes of this kind of coin I wanted it to come from a trusted source...I didn't see what I wanted for quite some time. Lucky for me I finally found one ^^  |

I have been after one of these. I have seen loads for sale on ebay, but been suspicious of most of them. Nice addition to the collection, well done :) |

I must congratulate you on the purchase mate to find one of this quality below $100 is a bargain seriously on vcoins this would probably retail for twice as much as far as I have seen.

I bought it on V coins. I have seen many for 225 euro and I have seen many cheaper ones without the appeal. On a whim I thought I would check once again, I searched META and then sorted into price order. This one jumped out as way better value than the rest. At £88 I couldn't refuse it (despite having just bought 3 banknotes off ebay) The V-coins store I bought this from seems to offer good quality coins, at reasonable prices and regularly gets new stock so always worth a look. Also since it is European I don't get landed with import duty which is very frustrating when trying to buy stuff from the states. |

I almost pulled the trigger when I first saw this coin.
I'm very glad you got it.

Great coin for the right price! I like this coin and style too, mine is the bronze version of 15mm:   |

Dutch, your one has some eye appeal too. To get the complete helm and complete wheel on the flan is half the battle but even with that some of these are not so pretty - yours is a nice example though.
