I've just been given permission my my CIT representative to post the picture of this new coin, which is not yet visible on their website. Look for a new thread soon on this one!
Did anyone realise this coin is faulty? The bottom edge under the wolf is banded, not round as the official photo shows..... Not happy...
Send a faulty coin back to your dealer and buy new one somwhere else. Still few coin available on the market.
Yeh, plenty in the market, but I think they will not be at the price I have paid for. Supplier will discuss internally and call me back, I hope they can find a replacement from CIT. I really like this coin and don't want to refund it.
Hi clubman, can you post a close-up on the banding issue? Can't identify the banding problem on your photo.
It isn't difficult to see with the coin on hand, the rear leg of the wolf isn't curved naturally. I don't have the macro lense with me otherwise it would be a lot clearer. Now I added a blue circle, it looks more obvious.
@clubman Post your price here and I am guite sure some of the dealers from this forum will help you get this coin at similar price.
I must be blind, but I can't see the issue lol. On the other hand, mine finally shipped...can't wait!
Yeh, too heavy... that's the weakest point in the whole coin, I am sure this won't be the only coin which has this problem.
It is easier to spot the defect on clubman's photo that has the blue circle overlay. The wolf's tail should be thin and close to the rim of the coin; the rim has bent outwards a little on clubman's wolf. Photo below is taken from an eBay seller, as a reference.
