A little back story. I saw this coin on eBay listed as a proof with a BIN of $25 best offer. I made an offer less than $25 and it was accepted by the seller.
DPOTD-3 'Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery'
I was looking through boxes at a local show several years ago and noticed that one of the coins was labelled wrong. I told the dealer and received a curt "All the descriptions are correct" reply. Ok then- sorry to have troubled you. Returning to the coins, I came across an early sixties Australian halfpenny. It was a proof, described as "BU". Also- there was a penny, threepence, sixpence and shilling, all proofs and all marked "BU". I bought the five coins for less than $20. They've since been graded, PR65/66.

Are you going to re-submit? That comment's a bummer.
Not sure. Took 4 months for that one to be graded.
