Hi Ho Silver, Away!
Received promptly, overpriced.
beccaloni, WV -
missing and wrong
The 1968 and 1969 coins were not sent to me.The 1962 coins were fine in the 1962 envelope but the 1963 envelope had another set of the 1962 coins.This is not the first time there have been missing coins from an order.Buyer beware and check your items completely when you receive them!
