Just saw this toned Columbian Half Dollar and thought the colors were out of this world.

I don't run across worn medals like this much. How common are they?

This is from Julian.

    I thought something along similar lines, but you'd be surprised.

    Me too!

    Quite a respectable person in the industry, but I don't understand his often too frequent selling of a graded coin, one grade higher because it's his personal opinion.

    Shouldn't there be just as many coins that are graded the opposite way, ie., a slabbed ms65 that he sells as 'it's my opinion this coin is not an ms65, but it's an ms64 and its price is much lower'.

    Hardly!!

    Here's another very reasonably priced item from Julian!

    I should mention I have purchased from Julian before. He was fairly firm on his price. The item I have was previously owned by Mike @Byers.

    Why would he buy an overgraded coin? [half kidding]
