What I purchased ..



What I received....




The photos are all over the place, and I understand eBay sales (it's what I use for upgrade coins) HOWEVER; WTF.

These sellers are fighting me on the condition/return.

I buy and sell on eBay.

PLEASE HONESTLY DESCRIBE AND PICTURE THE COIN FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

Both images are purposely edited or enhanced to make a sale far beyond what the coin is capable of grade-wise.

The 1819 was purchased @ cleaned but not whizzed prices

The 1830 was purchased @ AU55 prices.

    Been seeing that 1830 posted a few times, thought it was a nice coin at first glance but that looks terrible. Can't blame ya, both would've fooled me. Really hope you get your money back.

    I highly dislike AI descriptions, they discourage sellers from writing their own unique thoughts.

    Nowhere in the sellers photos are the hairlines that we see in your photos visible. If they're not noted in the description I'd send it back "not as described". Hairlines from a cleaning or a wipe (which these appear to be) should be disclosed in the description or visible in the listing photos.

    You can get money back regardless; no doubt the seller is willing to take it back if you explain your issues with them.
