Another great win on Great Collections! I recently snagged this insane neon toner and was stunned for a minute When I opened it and saw the color.
I assumed it had nice color based on the GC photo but… WOWZA

Great Toning from Great Collections. You should submit to PCGS for reholder and TrueView. Or regrade for just a few more bucks.
Nice! I guess the consignor left a few dollars on the table with that one.
In honor of the memory of Cpl. Michael E. Thompson
The coin sold for $7 (plus $5 buyer's fee for a total of $12). The consignor would pay 5% (sale below $1k) and a $3 listing fee, netting $3.65 on the coin. So yes they left some dollars on the table.
Score! Interpreting the various auction houses’ photography is a valuable skill. Send it for a TrueView or maybe to @FlyingAl for a nice high-res glamour shot.
Nothing is as expensive as free money.
Pretty colors when you light up the coin like that

Wow! That's a beauty and I would have been pleased as well with the color after seeing only the GC photos. I also think you should try to have it photographed with a TV or like someone else said Flying Al. Not much more money if you only paid 12$.
