Beautiful Coin Review by Chief Richard
The Ruthenium coating and then the gold plating adds such depth and beauty to this fabulous coin !! I am very pleased with the coin. Just don't expect it to be black and go.d, the Ruthenium is a great finish, not as black as the picture looks, but the gold is !! It just pops on the coin ! Love it, bought most of that line of coins low. (Posted on 5/3/2016)
