The seller refers to this as a "stunning piece" in his auction (link). Do you agree?

    A stunning piece ( of s___)! Solder markers....tst tst tst...people should have been shot for what they used to do to coins.

    They should have mentioned it was a ex-jewelry piece.
    At least that would have been more faithful and honest.
    Anyway, if your putting it in a Whittman album, it would work OK.
    As long as your not paying real undamaged coin prices.

    Stunning? Well, I guess so since I am stunned!
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!

    Since it's Abon, I'm surprised it's not in an SGS MS70 holder.

    My favorite part is his easy return policy: "If for any reason, you don't think that the coin you receive is the same one in the picture..."

    Well when the picture came up I was stunned.

    IN VF20, This coin lists for $180.00
    IN EF40, This coin lists for $350.00
    IN AU50, This coin lists for $1000.00
    in MS60, This coin lists for $5400.00!!!

    And in this condition it melts at around $115


    This coin is a stunning piece, and is sure to be a SUPERB addition to your collection!

    We figure if you're buying our junk your collection must be a bunch of trash plated quarters etc.


    YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THAT A COIN LIKE THIS IS NEARLY IRREPLACEABLE
    They just don't come this bad, they got melted in 1980.

    THIS COIN WILL NOT LEAVE OUR POSSESSION UNLESS IT IS INSURED.
    And we hope it gets stolen so we can collect on the over insurance we plan on doing.

    If I owned this coin it would be a good excuse to take a trip to New Orleans and place on the trolley car track for a good smushing. Then it would be stunning. Like Boom said---melting pot time.
