Is this a lousy coin or an amazingly terrible photograph?

Its on the colonial section of ebay at the moment - I don't know why.

  • Regardless of the coin, the results of (1)Superior taking pictures of (2)copper in (3)an NGC holder are NOT going to be pretty.

    Anyone ever buy a perfectly good coin with a terrible photo, reshoot it, then sell it for more?

    I did.. wait, no, I sold a perfectly good toned Roosie with a terrible scan of the toning instead of the pic, for $16.00. (PCGS MS66) Someone then bought it on Ebay and sold it three weeks later for $44. image

    in the last couple of years, ngc has done a remarkably energetic job of overtaking pcgs as the worst plastic to buy early copper in.
