Sometimes the picture just won't do justice...

In this case, the pic just won't come up to the seller's grade of "Unc."image

    Kind of a sad unc, eh? Interesting though, I'm going to try to place it since it dates from the beginning of my period of collecting (1789). asyn usually doesn't write with such a flourish, I wonder if he's hired a helper...

    Asyn also offers a few of those elusive Russian Boubles image

    It definitly looks cleaned. Look at the top of the obverse.

    I've usually had good experiences with him too, but lately his grading has been increasingly off.

    It may have not seen circulation, but hit has seen something harsh.

    I also think that the medal was cleaned.

    I have bought a few coins from Asyn myself - no problems, but he is one of those sellers where I usually grade the coin down by a full grade to find a realistic value. His images are usually large and clear so I don't consider that a problem. If the medal was cleaned, it should be noted though.
