Someone didn't get the message ...

... on this auction. Offered as a "BU" example at $24.88, can you find the real grade and seller's likely cost?

    Why is the 2X2's grade any more accurate than the BU cited in the auction description? Couldn't it have been undergraded?

    Just a thought. image

    Take it from someone whose partner sold an MS-64 2 1/2 dollar Indian as an AU-58. image

    Funny that the seller would not place the item in his/her own holder. However, being a fan of Columbian Expo items I like it and think that the starting price sounds fair (I may even bid).

    Yep. You learn real quick when you sell the creepy dealer across town a $1200.00 coin for $200.00. image
