So this popped up on ebay some days ago and it was pictured only with a closeup of the ear. It was a Buy It Now for $25 so I took a chance on it considering how cheap it is for this variety. It came in looking fairly decent. It's got issues (some corrosion and damage on the rim) and it's not the prettiest but it's still got luster! Minimally it is a hole filler until I can afford a better example.

I've been looking for a permanent profile picture to use and I think the medium closeup of this variety stands nicely for what I collect, so I'll be trying to get that changed soon. How did I do?
