Nice texture and weight

The coin feels substantial in hand. The copper color is rich. One small nick on the edge, but that adds to its character I suppose.

Good condition for the age

I was pleased with the quality. There is some expected wear given it is over 600 years old, but overall it is in fine shape. Shipping was secure.
