Gee, I don't know. Sells a few cheap, non coin items than suddenly has this one. I sent an eMail asking for better images. Let's see what happens.

Would be worth flying to OK to see it in person/doing the deal in person.

i thought I saw a pr63 on Ebay recently that looked like this one.

HEY! At least it doesn't say "Reserve not yet met"

I think I'll wire the 40k and then bid so he can ship immediately with any overage.

After all, it's from ....GRANDPA.....and I am sure he would not want to sully gramps.

I wonder if gramps slabbed it himself or bought it that way

David Hall's his GRANDPA?

shoot.

He talks the talk pretty good for being unware, except for what granpa said to him.

Why isn't he showing the reverse? I can understand the low opening bid to get the ball rolling, and if the deal is legit, chances are the coin will sell at the right level.

Still, why to photos of the same side? Could there be something going on here?

I think he has an ink cartridge I can use.

If you have money you don't want and really aren't looking to get anything in return for, I'd say bidding on the auction would solve your problem.
