I seem to have sub-consciously removed that issue from my memorybank.

One of the most enjoyable times in grading a coin is to see the depth and definition in the emu which is completely lost in a sprayed on paint job.

Unfortunately it is Dash1
1oz of silver from the Perth Mint is it's only endearing quality Ok
The pad printing looks like it has been done by a 10yo kid, Yuk.
It seemed like a good idea at the time, but well I could have had a couple too many that nightBlush

This is the worst example of Grannybait that I have.


This is one of the better offerings , some of these are quite nice Ok

Worst part is I double-ordered it! Dash1 Best possible outcome is the silver price might eventually catch up with issue price, if I live that long. Sad
