Mozart Opera the Magic Flute

I just got Friedberg goldcoins 2002 and this coin and am allready disappointed
Better quality of pictures but less complete then Krause
Quotes this coin at 38% over melt
Well I got it at 2% over melt
Does not even mention San Marino sets and at least Krause has SOME
Does not have the piedfort and teststrikes I got either
I guess I now have to buy a French catalogue

PYW,
The Breughel (?) painting was crowded with little people.

Where's Wally? is a series of children's books created by the British illustrator Martin Handford. The goal is to find a certain man, Wally, in a busy picture full of people. Wally dresses in a red and white hooped shirt and shellfish hat, carries a wooden walking stick, and wears glasses. He is always losing things, including books, camping equipment and even his shoes, and viewers are invited to spot these items in the illustrations as well.

The books consist of a series of complex full-page illustrated pictures of hundreds of tiny people doing various things. The purpose is to find Wally among the group, which can be difficult as he is always well hidden.
