    "Dear sir,

    I'm curious as to why you list a value for this coin in MS67 condition? It appears to have been both circulated and cleaned. Why not list a value for a VF example, instead? That would be much closer to relevant unformation. You're not by chance attempting to mislead or take advantage of anyone are you?

    Thanks for your time."

    I will post his reply if I receive oneimage

    Why does florida have so many sellers that can't grade worth crud.

    Couldn't this be keyword spamming where MS67 is a keyword and this isn't MS67?

    Morally, yes, but one can always fall back on the "grading is subjective" argument. It shouldn't be so subjective that this POS is graded MS-67, but still...

    What makes you think they can't grade? image

    No... You gotta love the unethical dip$hit sellers that pull this crap on Ebay. There is nothing wrong with Ebay itself except they cannot check every unethical seller.

    I'm ready for a blasting for the above....image

    Even a newbie should know that coin is heavily circulated.

    You would never have a conversation like that listing in real life.

    "Hey, Bob, how much you asking for that 1995 black Dodge Neon in your driveway?"

    "Well, you know Charlie, if that was a 2005 black Porche 911, I'd be asking $55,000."

    This bunch of coins has many Key Dates in it like the 1894o, 1903s, 1904s, 1899, 1896o, 1878cc, 1890cc, 1883cc, 1934s, and many more Awesome coins that look to be Brilliant Uncirculated, Almost Uncirulated and Many others in High grades.


    Too bad this wasn't one of the high grade coins.

    The "$55,000.00 in MS67" schtick reminds me of my joke auction. I had a 1926-S cent in VF photographed from 5 feet away listed with "in PCGS MS-66 RD this coin is worth $65,000!".
