Great eBay Seller sent a very informative as described Richmond Collection Silver Coinage catalog securely packaged, AAA+ transaction, Thanks, Note: The USPS missed 3 delivery dates, took (14 days) to deliver this item from MO to MS totally unacceptable, the seller had nothing to do with the extremally long shipping time.
