gxseries Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 This is an unfortuate event of what happens whne you have a kid that thinks this is a silver coin and make it into a pocket piece. http://www.ma-shops.com/pollandt/item.php5?id=11549&lang=en It's a low mintage PALLADIUM coin Originally proof coin with mintage of under 10,000 I believe.

Finn235 Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 It's really a shame to see this happen to such a rare coin, but truth be told, I've always found coins like these to be much more interesting than the ones that spend eternity in a plastic coffin. Plus, the existence of low-grade coins can help drive up the value of the existing ones in higher grades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
