Those foggy pictures freak me out a little, like you're buying a haunted coin or something.... Plus, I've always had this negative attitude towards names or titles that use numbers in place of words.....
My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable !
I have looked at a few of his auctions in the past, and I have to say that his pictures are getting better!!! Before you couldn't even tell that they were coins
The sad thing is he actually has some nice coins some collectors would want. The images must drive away bids. He could do so much better if he had a clue
<< <i>The images must drive away bids. He could do so much better if he had a clue >>
I agree. I was bidding on one of his Civil War tokens and just couldn't get myself to go that extra little bit that might have won it for me because i was so unsure about the "look".

Me too, especially any variation of "4U" in the user ID.
Heywood, I would also neg when the seller posts this as being representative of the 'hoard'........if you look closely, maybe you see a 40% silver Kennnedy, but the image is NO WHERE CLOSE to being representative of a 40% hoard...it is representative3 of a 90% hoard.
I agree there is an atempt to decieve/mislead- but in his foggy mind, since he states that they contain 40% he is justified. ( he even states that they contain all 40% silver.
Also look at the link he provides to SHopathome for 40% silver coins, with regular mixed silver picture- maybe he thinks if they can do it, so can he? null
I bet that isn't even his pictue, all of his other LOT OF COINS and individual pictures are blured out and have different file names ( Also notice the Camera icon in lower right)

(Maybe he used to photograph for Penthouse?)
it seems most recent negs are from people who didn't read that the silver hoard included 40% silver coinage -
Smaller type, but it was disclosed.

May I ask how many of his coins have you seen.
