Please allow 77 enlarge crop images speak for itself on the 1873 IHC.

  • With all due respect:

    The coin I sent IS NOT IDENTICAL to what I received. Based upon the DETAIL MARKINGS on the coin.

    The question is, Why? The enlarge Crop Image of each section of the coin is attempting to compared the detail alloy, scratch, markings, rim of coin, characteristic of the markings are not IDENTICAL to each other. I’m trying to point this out to everyone. This is not a scam. I would like you to read the title of the description & comment that point out the differences and compare the lighter coin to the darker coin, according to the sections I’ve Enlarge.

    Please bare with me in response, I m slow on the computer.

    Is this:

    the same coin as this?

    Despite how many times you attempt to enlarge or crop your images, they are going to come up looking crappy and unintelligible because they are terrible to begin with. And truth be told, the more YOU play with them the more different they WILL become. I see that you have again offered nothing any different image wise except for the same images.

    Unless you can provide specific, highly detailed images, bothj before and after, you will never, ever convince me or anybody on these forums that you received anything other than the exact same coin you sent only photographed under different lighting techniques and at different focal lengths.

    Thats all there is to it.

    Hmmmmm.....

    Still the same coin.

    I have looked carefully at your photos and they are indisputably of the same exact coin. 100% of the opinions offered agree.

    Please explain why you think every single person here, none of whom have anything to gain or lose on this subject, is wrong.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    It would appear that other basic skills are also missing.... I bet you could have fun collecting stamps, or screw-off wine bottle caps, or machine screws with reversed threads....or?

    I'm dying to know:
    1. How old are you?
    2. What is your educational background?
    3. What do you do for a living?
    4. Are you always this stubborn when people disagree with you?

    I’m sure you’ve all encountered people who’re passionate about their beliefs, strong willed in how they act, and very vocal about what they’re thinking. These people are just very determined and want to be right. It’s either their way or the highway, most of the time.

    These people are so determined, that you know it’s almost pointless to argue with them about anything because they don’t relent, and they won’t ever give up. If they feel something should be done a certain way, then it needs to be done that way or else it won’t work. These types of people can also be very defensive about things and will fight till the end, even in defeat. You could say that these types are people are just plain stubborn!

    However, I say that these types of people are just plain stupid! Yes, that’s right, stupid. While not everyone fits the bill, I’d say that those who are so strong willed to always be right, are in fact the dumbest ones of all. They’re so unwilling to change, so unwilling to even listen, that they do no one any good. There really is no point in arguing with them because they will never hear anything you say. They’re too busy thinking of what next to say to try and spin their argument to their advantage.

    Stubbornness is an act of stupidity I say. There may be cases where it’s necessary to be stubborn, say a parent teaching a child, but that’s a case of teaching. When you’re dealing with peers, it becomes a different story. You completely limit yourself and close yourself down that you don’t consider anything anyone even says.

    So next time you find yourself being stubborn, take a moment to stop and listen, and consider what is being said. It might actually help, and will definitely prevent you from looking foolish.

    And from first and last glance most are out of focus so who cares, except you.

    The prosecution has rested its case and the jury has reached a verdict. The verdict will be read: "We the jury, find onekram guilty of ignorance, bad english, and internet arguing on all counts". Sentencing now begins. "This court finds onekram detestable to the coin collecting hobby and lacking everyday common sense. The assertions made are without merit and full of assumptions and bad lighting. You are hereby ordered to leave the Collectors Universe Forums, never to return and spend the rest of your days in a mental institution arguing on the internet".

    And that's the REST OF THE STORY!

  • Now hold on a minute, guys, Onekram might be on to something. Look at the toning difference near the "OF" in images 9 and 10. They clearly aren't the same coin. The first one is a pattern, Judd # 1235, die variety Snow #3, I think. Obvoiusly, whoever Onekram sent this historic rarity to realized he got an R8 gem in the mail, and then spent the weekend making a poorly-crafted copy to send back to our main man. I think we all need to step back, validate the fact that one of our own was victimized, and move forward to help him get the help he needs.

    It won't be so funny when Onekook quotes this the next time he posts, or the next time he writes Rick Snow, or the next time he contacts his lawyer.
