How's this for some color?

Impulse BIN the other night en route. Seller doesn't deal heavily in toned coins, and it matches the photographic "style" of his other offerings, so I'm guessing the image has not been enhanced.

Someone's getting ripped off!!

Joy. I just fired off an inquiry to the seller to explain how he was selling 2 identically toned coins 1 day apart.

Why I oughtta...

Great color and looks to be high grade. Mine is no where near as colorful or nice. I think I got this from jester last year NGC 63RB if I remember correctly. It's in the Safety deposit box .

Well, I don't know what the deal was, but I got the coin today. It matches the toning patterns in the picture exactly, albeit somewhat subdued (which I expected).

It looks to be a high-end AU or low-grade UNC. Quite lovely.

All's well that ends well... weird.

Very strange, maybe the other winner took the hit.

Edited to add: Just checked feedbacks of seller and buyer on the one I was out bid on. No feedback left by either party. Maybe the deal fell thru and the item was just re-listed.
