1 pointYes, I have tried to be diplomatic but definitely "caveat emptor". I many years ago got a very nice pattern model 1927 shilling for a quite decent price and got a couple of off metal strikes for a song. I still look but haven't been back since Laurie passed. Really just trying to alert our loyal forum members, if they needed it....
