Hi,
Sorry about the previous screwups. Still trying to make it into the 21st century with modern
technology.

Anyway, has anyone delt with this seller before. He has a very nebulous return policy, but
he has a wide variety of coins some slabbed and some raw. Here is one in particular:



http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=39465&item=3932200703&rd=1
eBay item 3932200703 (Ends Sep-30-04 17:26:00 PDT) - 1879 S Morgan Dollar MS-65 ++ DMPL




Thanks,


Bruce

    WOW! Has that thing been whizzed/cleaned to hell! I don't think I've ever seen a coin with spots like that that hasn't been horribly damaged. That's a coin that would be in a slab if it could be... if it's too good to be true, you know the rest.

    I actually looked at that coin also and came to the same conclusion.."leave me alittle bit of silverimage Your whizzing me off!

    putting together a MS 60 and up Morgan set....60% complete...otlher 40% probably take the rest of the decade!

    I've had a fairly positive experience with this seller in the past. Granted, I've only purchased one coin from him. Some of the coins he does auction do indeed look cleaned/whizzed though; so buyer beware.

    Cheers,
    Mr. Thigpen

    "WOW! Has that thing been whizzed..."

    There is no indication that that coin has been whizzed, I wish you guys would get your terminology straight.

    P.S. But that is one ugly coin.

    On another side...For those of you that believe the coin is cleaned, what leads you to believe that?

    It only takes one idiot with the cash to buy it..... And just because he has good feedback really just means you got what you paid for..... Many people don't have a clue what cleaning does to a coin.

    If you bought it that way, and it was sent to you quickly, why the heck not give the person good feedback?
