nice grade, but looks a bit polished?

Yes, very slightly, not enough to ruin the coin at all though as I hate polished coins with a passion!

Really not sure why people do it, if you want to get dirt off a coin just use a little ultrasonic thing

WWF 50P 15.5g 22ct & no3 & no4 Silver Forum Bars :)

How do you know if it’s been polished? Fine hairlines I’m guessing

If you get a really polished coin it's very obvious, very shiny and detail gets flattened/merged together

2 Rwanda Nautical 1oz Silver Proofs from Dios :)

Looks quite disappointing imo for a proof coin. Not much shiny background on the ship side, looks more like a BU coin.

I did try to buy one from Dios but just too late.

Glad you liked the Unicorn!

Just getting back from being out of country for a few weeks and there are a few pieces I had received while I was away ...Firstly, however, are a couple I received just before departing.

And companion bullion 1/4 oz Queen’s Beast Griffin of Edward, 1/4 oz Queen’s Beast Red Dragon of Wales, and 1/4 oz Queen’s Beast Lion of England. They all accompany the 1/4 oz Proof Queen’s Beast Black Bull of Clarence!

My first forum purchase for a while. 5 wonderful Black Bull of Clarence coins.

Rearing up on his hind legs, with his strong cheek bones, limp wrists and nonchalant smile ........ @649tom is truly a great person to do business with. :)
