Description

Fashioned from just about any material - but most often from regional plants, seeds, berries, fruit, and leaves - wreaths are an important decorative holiday tradition.  Wreaths are placed on front doors, on light standards along main boulevards, above home hearths, and just about anywhere where the circlet of festive joy will help boost spirits in winter's darkest months.  A wreath on the door of a home during the holiday season offers a sign of welcome and warm wishes to visitors.

 

 Celebrate a rich holiday tradition with this sparkling crystal-encrusted coin!

Unsearched”All of the coins offered in this listing are “unsearched”.  Many coin dealers “search” all coins when they are received from the Mint.  They "cherry-pick" the best coins.  Then submit them to be graded, certified, and slabbed by PCGS, NGC, ANACS, etc.  These graded and certified coins are then sold at higher, premium prices.  When a dealer searches coins, those that they sell in original Mint packaging are only lesser quality coins.


Photos: When a listing offers multiples of the same coin, one coin is picked at random and photographed.  Since all coins offered in that listing are essentially identical, the coin photographed is representative of all coins offered.


Surface areas that appear black on some proof coin photos are actually highly polished, mirror-bright metal reflecting the color of the camera. We often include proof coin photos with the coin slightly tilted to better depict the mirror bright surfaces.  However, tilting the coin may resulting one side being slightly out of focus.

Our goal is to provide clear, high definition photos that accurately represent the coin(s) offered in each of our eBay listings.  Whenever possible, we use actual photos of our coins, rather than just stock artwork from the Mint.  We frequently update and upgrade the photos that appear with our listings, using improved cameras and lenses and better lighting.  We will honor your requests for additional photos as quickly as our schedule permits.
