Buyer buys a few Lincoln sets...

"Two of the sets in envelopes were very dark. Two others had a spot on one of the coins. Please advise."

Hi,

This matches how the sets were described: "Many of the coins have spotting or dark toning."

Thank you,

    What can I say - collectors drink too - and that can be a problem...... :D

    Now there is a buyer that will likely take an eraser to the coins to make them lool 'pretty'... :D Cheers, RickO

    Late night shopping and booze normally do not reap good benefits. (It looked good last night)

    Use some MS70 and "uncover" the beautiful blue toning that is under there!
