    Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought you could'nt list a grade in the title unless the coin is certified by one of their approved tpg's?

    Thanks for the find. Another example of why it's wise to beware of BINs.

    I asked the seller why he does not disclose the "damage" now that he's cracked it out.

    I'm sure he'll flame me but what the heck.

    You can't list a numerical grade if it's not certified. XF/AU, etc is fine.

    Why not just make an offer of $1 more than the $374 that K-A Coins bought it for? Just explain that you wouldn't want to overpay for an environmentally damaged coin.image At least give K-A-C credit for the large scale images that clearly show the corrosion! image

    NP. Just seemed particularly egregious given the asking price.

    He did send me a reply and now he's changed the price down and made mention of the
    corrosion.
