It does not look like it tastes good

ElectricEye · November 6, 2003 1:42PM

Delicious? No.

I would describe it as "pond water scum", but then again, that description fits the seller as well after looking as his auction terms. A $5 in store pickup fee? He must have been an ex-federal employee.

Reminds me of a great quote from Happy Gilmore:

Shooter McGavin: You're in big trouble, pal. I eat pieces of $hit like you for breakfast!
Happy Gilmore: You eat pieces of $hit for breakfast?

There is an originality to this Walker though that is appealing. There are too many washed out bright coins out there. It is kind of cool seeing one that is different.
Actually, if the BIN was just a bit lower I'd go for it.

This guy has something about senses. Here's his STINKER.

Was not aware people EAT coins.

Sequitur · November 6, 2003 5:57PM

Stinker? That's nothing for this guy. Check out scary.

The SCAREY tone looks something like the DELICIOUS tone, just not SPREAD on the delicious like sauce on a pizza. Same washed off dipping agent?

Cooked coins develop flavor?

UGGGGGHHHHH! Don't think I'll be adding any of those Walkers to my collection!!!

Lucky Walkers: They're Magically Delicious!

XpipedreamR · November 6, 2003 10:39PM

Even though the toning around the rim of the Walker looks kind of cruddy, I bet it's speckled with all kinds of colors and looks nice in hand.

Baley · November 6, 2003 11:57PM

Creative descriptions.

my own "coined" favorite: CRUNCHY luster (you know, like the February Frost on the Front Lawn)

Russ · November 7, 2003 1:21AM

That Walker is an MS64? If that were posted here as just an image with no grade, the vast majority here, (including myself), would have said it's an AU coin. That is the flattest, most rubbed on MS64 I've ever seen.

But would you pay an additional $7 to have it shipped? Or you could pick it up for only $5

ms70 · November 7, 2003 2:02AM

I wonder if it's some sort of bait & switch thing. This guy must be some sort of super jerk to charge $5 to pick it up. I wonder if he charges
that to walk-in customers.

As literacy drops such nonsensical word use will rise. I think it would be a great exercise to come up with the most polished sounding drivel for eBay descriptions.

Is anyone willing to try?

ConstellatioCollector · November 7, 2003 11:52AM

Maybe it was delicious at one time but now it has been passed (if you know what I mean!).

shirohniichan · November 7, 2003 11:59AM

Here's my attempt:

This coin positively drips freudian luster under swaths of neolithic toning and reverential mint bloom. Soteriologically speaking, euclidian collectors of the highest umbrage will decoupage this prescient coin.

<< <i>MELLOW ORIGINAL COIN - Delicious Natural Toning >>

Pond crud would be a better description. The kind of " Delicious " that only algae would love.

STEWARTBLAYNUMIS · November 7, 2003 10:34PM

Maybe the seller lickedthis coin before he slabbed it.If anyone should know it would be him!!!!! ASK HIM
