And do you know what? That is the way it ought to be done!We specialize in High Grade and Scarce ancient coins that possess extraordinary Eye Appeal. And ONLY coins that are Fully Disclosed NGC Graded and Encapsulated If you are looking for the finest examples for your collection ... you're at the right place. *************************************************************************************************************OPTIONAL PAYMENT PLAN - EXCLUSIVE PREMIUM ITEM - LAY-A-WAY PLAN OFFER LAY-A-WAY: 15% down ..
