The stock number matches the coin that came but I feel it is not the same coin. Any of you agree?

No matter what, you should return it, even if by some remote chance it is the same coin. Horribly cleaned.

<< <i>Preussen - the example you show depicts the cancer that exists in coin selling on ebay. This is why I do not like buying raw coins there anymore. >>
I agree it is unfortunate that someone would do this, but I've bought many, many raw coins over the years, both on and off ebay. My experience tells me this is a very rare occurrence. My (German) seller said he'd refund my purchase price upon return, but since the coin was inexpensive, I decided that paying Registered shipping (again) on the chance of a refund wasn't worth the cost. I'll continue buying raw coins (but I'm less likely to do so from unknown sellers) and hope this won't happen again. - Preussen
Micheál, pm me your address, I have this coin double and I'll send it to you for free. You just have to be patient for about three weeks.
Meanwhile I'll try to picture it, so that you know whereupon you can look forward to.
Ordering directly off their web site, coins I received were never coins that were pictured. So, now I no longer to business with them.
is that you end up being governed by inferiors. – Plato
Outside of ebay, I have had pretty good experiences. Inside ebay, over 50% of raw coins I have bought in the last two years were cleaned and not described thus.

Wow, I'm glad I've had better luck than you

Unless, of course, the seller's image was taken in 1702.

<< <i>I see this dealer is part of the Vcoins Mall. they have a Code of Ehtics (NOTE RULE 13) that all dealers are suppose to adhear to. I am sure they may be of service should you have any problems. Josh (Civitas CU forum member) is also a Dealer at Vcoins and I am sure he would not want his a stuff like this to happen. >>
That's how I found this seller was through the Vcoin mall. I have bought from other sellers there without a problem. I hope there is not too much of a fight to get a refund. I hope this sellers adhears to the code of Ethics Bill.
