Put on your sunglasses - a Proof 63 1870 Seated Dollar

I put on my sunglasses and couldn't see it. Is this a proof?

    Tade:

    1. Go to the site you want to link.
    2. Highlight the address (in the address bar), right-click, "copy".
    3. Come here and start your thread.
    4. Above the text box is an "http" with a chain next to it. Click on that button.
    5. After the popup shows, right-click, "paste".
    6. Click "ok". Another box will appear.
    7. This time type the text you want to show on the link...I typed "Link."
    8. Click "ok". Some code will show in your text box. This is the link code. Leave it alone and finish your post.

    And there you have it....a link.

    More than a "small rim bump at 12 o'clock". Can't be certain it is proof from those pics/scans. His feedback positive % is very high, though it is private, so you can't tell the number of transactions. I love that series.

    That is the funniest auction that I have seen in awhile. What a piece of crap. I would call it PF-35 if I felt like being generous. The thing is cleaned and AT to hide the hairlines. Hilarious how he claims that it's the best of the 3 he has sold on ebay recently. Can't imagine getting any worse.

    It looks like that proof circulated a bit. Kind of a stale item too, since we need to bid before the xmas rush.

    I just looked at his other auctions. Actually this 1870 is the best coin of his lots. This guy is a total scam and a con man. Good thing is that not one item has a single bid. Maybe people are starting to get wiser. People like this make me hurl.

    Sun Glasses needed for the price. The coin looks like it has been cleaned.

    imageCrap, should I retract my bid! Oh wait, I can't laugh and bid at the same time. It does look like someone worked on it in the past!

    All I can say is ARF! ARF!...even if this coin was a former proof...in its present state it is a total dog.
    The asking price is also rediculous.

  • Over dipped?
    It's the "hunt" that makes this such a great hobby...
