I had purchased this as a wedding present for my daughter and was concerned about its arrival date. They helped make sure that my order got here on time and in good order before the wedding. As I said, job well done!

While shipping was a bit slower than what I'm used to with my other rare coin & bullion dealers, my overall experience with Blanchard was awesome. I will purchsse from them again.
