Review: Great packaging and great product, love it. - Looking at the rating count, I was initially a little sceptical but then after reading the reviews and following coiniacs on social media I finally decided to order. And I was delighted that I did. The order was delivered very quickly by the next day and the unboxing experience was really great. Didn't expect an under 500 rupees product coming in such great packaging. Coming to the coin, the condition was really good and well preserved. All the details on the coin were clear and I was really pleased to acquire such a collectible. I plan on purchasing a few more to give them away as a gift. Totally recommended. A must buy item.
