I ripped Braddick - AGAIN


I bought this 1958 1c MS65RB off eBay last week and now that I received it, I think it was a great deal.

The sea foam green islands in this firey red toning is even more vibrant than the photo.

Sorry, but this coin won't be recyled back to the nice people on eBay. It's a keeper. Thanks Pat.

    I did think that little beauty would go for a tad bit more than you paid, but- oh, well.

    That is sometimes what happens when you have No Reserve auctions that start at $1.

    Win some. Lose some!
    At least it found a good home.

    I even complained my first cheap weasel bid didn't win it, and I had to come back - and outbid the other guy by a penny.

    In the future you may want to crop out the light bulb reflection. Even though it's an accurate picture of the coin (it's even better in person) - it tends to draw the eye away from the coin.

    But I'm the last person who should be giving advice about taking pictures of coins. image

  • Wow,
    What an asset relayer is to our hobby, huh?
