    Don't forget to let the seller know if it grades above MS66 per his request. image

    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    That's pretty hideous. Too many mind games, suggestion, pushing greed switches, to catch a sucker.

    This reminds me a little of the old marketing trick "If you can't fix it, feature it".
    Some people might try to convince you that this Sneeze remnant "toning" is desireable and highly sought after by advanced collectors.

    Looks like a poor image that I can't make a decision with, I would need to see this in person to make a true and accurate assessment of the coin. If for some reason it graded a gem fbl, then it is on the rare side...

    frank, awhile back you called Gregs Frankie a sure fure ms66, it is au at best, this coin probably is bad news and I'll agree this image isnt helping its case, but, i would still need to see it in person or some better imaging...

    Well - while true it did fool me that time, I guess the fact that you wound up keeping it has to say something for it's eye appeal. However - Even under the best of circumstances, whatever is on this coin, even if it was natural speckling, which it isn't, this coin merits no "gem" status in my book image
  • It reminds me of how some bars used to paint the coins they contributed to the jukebox so they could separate them later from the ones that the customers put in. Looks like he didn't let it soak long enough in the paint thinner.
    That humanity at large will ever be able to dispense with artificial paradises seems unlikely. Most men and women lead lives at the worst so painful, and at the best so monotonous, poor, and limited, that the urge to escape, the longing to transcend themselves, if only for a few moments, is and always has been one of the principal appetites of the soul.

  • It would be funny to buy it and then email the seller a few months later saying PCGS graded it 66. Thanks for a great deal!
