Pic doesn't match description/bids/price. Sent a question if these are the exact coins for sale.

    I don't see any issues, what are your concerns?

    image $5.00 worth of 90% circulated silver dimes. Not sure what your issue is.

    I think tneig is concerned that the coins in the pic are a lot nicer that the ones he's actually selling.

    The coins imaged are polished junk. Buy as 90% and you will get 90%.

    Thank you all.
    I did get a response back from the seller. He posted the flip side of them and said they are the exact ones.
    It was low $$ up to the last second.

    You can bet there will not be anything special in there.... and likely a lot more wear than

    in the picture. Cheers, RickO

    Yeah, at a range around the original price of $75, since it had few bids, I would have gotten them just because my other merc's are more junky.
    He does very well with those photos. When looking real close you can see they're condition, but still a bit better than the plain junk that ends up for the same range.

    I didn't want to pay through the nose for BU's during this higher spot and waiting for the next ride on the low. I got bid out and I'm glad I didn't get caught up in it too much. Ended up at $86.

    He went to more trouble than it's worth to sell 90% circ silver. They are actually less desirable because of his "work", in my opinion. But the value isn't affected either way.

    I'll beat those prices with a guarantee that if you don't like 'em, you may send 'em back.

    90% scrap price no more. jmo

    (Thanks TwoSides..)

    It sold for $86 which is little more than junk silver, discounting the ebay charges. I clean my own junk/base silver 90% but that's all it is.
    I'd really like some BU merc's but boy are they rich!
