There is either a "you suck" award or a SNAD claim in my near future.

    I think by asking for it, or claiming the status, that automatically DQ's you from receiving the 'You Suck' award. It has to be awarded! I could be wrong, but I do believe you quite possibly DQ'ed yourself, hate tp be the bearer.... can someone with more knowledge about it than I either confirm or deny it, please?

    edited...not being a series I'm familiar with, care to clue me in.....either out here, or PM, if you want others guessing?? And how the hell could you tell anything with those awesome images???
    I'll come up with something.

    I think that 1822 is a 1832, but hard to tell from pics

    even if you don't score on this one, there may be bargains in the future as grandpa left a couple hundred pounds of coins...
  • Alltheabove76Alltheabove76 Posts: 1,520 ✭✭✭✭
    Nothing to lose on this one but a little time. If its an 1822, its a dog, but still worth several hundred.

    Sounds like Grandpa passed some time ago, "My Grandfather passed away in 1972, I"I WILL BE LISTING MANY HUNDREDS OF POUNDS OF COINS IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS" I have left the grades that my Grandfather left on them he sold many coins over his life".

    I hope this item has shipped for you. Members here have been burned when posts like these pop up. Vindictive or sour users have been known to message the seller from the link you provide and offer more $$$, the seller sees this thread and the coin mysteriously gets lost or something else where the deal gets ruined...so I hope for your sake the coins are in transit.

    Looks like a scratched 1832 and the seated is only plugged on the obverse.

    Already shipped and tracking shows its been received at post office.
  • Alltheabove76Alltheabove76 Posts: 1,520 ✭✭✭✭
    I expect it to be an 1832. But, was worth a try. One of the few key dates coins I have never owned is an 1822 dime.
  • DoubleEagle59DoubleEagle59 Posts: 8,375 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I don't think it's an 1822 date.

    Hopefully, I'm wrong.

  • ebaybuyerebaybuyer Posts: 2,984 ✭✭✭
    by even hinting that you would open a SNAD just to recover $27 based on those lousy pics should earn you an award. "It's fun to gamble when there's no risk involved." there is an appropriate reward but no appropriate way to type it
    regardless of how many posts I have, I don't consider myself an "expert" at anything
  • Alltheabove76Alltheabove76 Posts: 1,520 ✭✭✭✭
    I dont know about you ebaybuyer, but if I purchase an item advertised as an 1822 dime, and its an 1832 dime...if the seller refuses an a refund, then I will open a SNAD claim. If that makes me a bad person, then I am the worst.

    Seriously you are trying to rip the guy and if it doesn't work out you will SNAD. I'm all for using knowledge to your advantage but that seems pretty low.
  • Alltheabove76Alltheabove76 Posts: 1,520 ✭✭✭✭
    This was an auction, not a buy-it-now. And the seller listed it as a key date 1822 dime. Taking advantage how? My max bid was $200.

    Your logic is simply that I should not have the audacity to expect to receive the advertised item because I won the auction for a low amount.
  • jdimmickjdimmick Posts: 9,752 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I don't think its an 1822 , but hopefully for you it is
  • coin22lovercoin22lover Posts: 3,542 ✭✭✭
    Even if it is an 1822, I doubt it's worth more than $150 in a slab in that condition.
  • RampageRampage Posts: 9,497 ✭✭✭✭✭
    You would do a SNAD over 27 dollars? Taking into account what the coins are really worth (if not an 1822), is it really worth the headache and effort? Seems rather petty for that amount, considering you were willing to pay $200, so you already feel like you "scored". Just my opinion, though...
  • Alltheabove76Alltheabove76 Posts: 1,520 ✭✭✭✭
    I want an 1822 dime, not junk silver. I would first request a refund before a SNAD.

    Also @coin22lover if anyone can find a slabbed 1822 dime in any condition for $150, I will pay them a $100 finders fee.

    that is NOT an 1822 dime



    the position of the date is incorrect for an 1822. The date is further to the viewer's left on an 1822. No question about it.

    This also happens with BST

    which is why I will NEVER use it again!



    Other than for eBay links.

    How can this be considered to be a rip when it is marked as a 1822? I don't think it is a 1822, but even if it is........who would want one in that condition??
  • lakeshorelakeshore Posts: 178 ✭✭
    Sorry, not an 1822. On the 1822, the last digit of the date is to the left of the hair curl...

    Although my grading skills are not geared toward coins that resemble an electrical box knock out, a P3 sold in July of 2015 for $1,125, so apparently there's at least 1 person that wanted it.

    And while likely not a huge rip as you call it, if he's right it has value of some sort.

    Not everyone can afford top coins and that's OK to me. Lighten up Francis, and have fun.

    So if I understand the OP's position correctly, it is easier to give a seller a hard time about a mistaken attribution than it is to look at the diagnostics of an 1822 dime in the FREE CoinFacts and compare to the eBay image, and learn a little. Interesting. Yes, you definitely suck.

    Hey, you can look at my Complete set and see that I am not a top pop guy. But you have to draw the line somewhere.image

    Okay, you got me. What's a SNAD?

    It's a full refund for significantly not as described...kinda like buying a 79 cadillac and they send you a 78.

  • Alltheabove76Alltheabove76 Posts: 1,520 ✭✭✭✭
    In this case more like buying a 1957 Chevy and receiving a 1980 Pinto.

    That might be a fair analogy if the eBay listing had a picture of a Roosevelt dime. Nice try.



    Two bidders only on a lot that supposedly offers a rare date coin. From a seller that primarily offers wrist_watches, adult entertainment, and other widget collectibles. Do you know the scent of gullible ?



    "My max bid was $200"

    If there was anyone else on eBay who believed that the coin was an 1822, your max bid would have been soundly crushed.

    And to top it off, you claim to be willing to throw a $100 finders fee at anyone who locates a legit 1822 dime, but you're quacking about a $27 lottery ticket ?

    Funny guy you are ! image

    I would need at least a $127 finder's fee.

    The analogy works ok if you're expecting a restorable 1957 Chevy in fair condition for a price of $150....or what a Pinto might be worth.



    I owned a 1979 Caddy DeVille for a couple years. It was a better year than the 1978 imo.

    Yeah, seems like you understand it. Though I did file a SNAD on a $6 coin, but that was because the seller sent me the wrong coin and I had no desire for it.
  • mustangmanbobmustangmanbob Posts: 1,890 ✭✭✭✭✭
    How about being a NICE GUY:

    Ask the seller what the date was?

    Ask the seller, if you get it, and it is wrong, that you want to return it, without an SNAD.

    Post your ebay ID so those who desire can block you.

    Use of your SNAD allocation, so that if one really hits, you don't have any left. There is a limit per person on ebay.
  • pennyanniepennyannie Posts: 3,929 ✭✭✭
    The dollar amount means nothing, you should get it.

    Otherwise run auctions with no pics and a title- "coin for sale" then send what ever you like to the winner. But if you a are selling a 1883 morgan, you should deliver the coin to the winning bidder.

    I'll go one further and say I HOPE it's not an 1822 but rather the 1832 you expect to receive and paid for.

    If you do what you always did, you get what you always got.
  • Bob1951Bob1951 Posts: 268 ✭✭
    It is too difficult to tell from the photos. It could be an 1823/2 or 1832 or just about anything else. The coin is too junky for me. You will not get a you suck award from me for such a purchase. If it happens to be an 1822 then you made out by luck, if not just send it back fer a refund. Let us know.

    That's a joke right? The auction title clearly states, "1822 Capped Bust Dime". How is expecting to receive an 1822 Capped Bust Dime, "hoping it is something that it is not"?



    The OP placing SNAD in the thread title might have twisted some the wrong way and even that wouldn't have been necessary had the seller stated they accept returns.

    Thats exactly right. And of course I will give him a chance to just give me a refund if its not an 1822.

    What would you value that auction at if you knew it was a 1832?
    What would you do if the auction called it a 1832 and you actually got an 1822?

    OP could have easily asked the seller a clarifying question about the coin/date. Could have been a typo, could have been purposeful. "2" and "3" are pretty near each other....and, seller could have honestly thought it was "2" if not that clear and not really a coin person.

    OP didn't do so.

    OP didn't want to risk "alerting" the seller to any potential value.



    OP clearly was hoping to score a rip or else use eBay's system to get his money back. There was nothing the OP did to get ahead of the situation.

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
