In this case, the pic just won't come up to the seller's grade of "Unc."

"func" perhaps....

Kind of a sad unc, eh? Interesting though, I'm going to try to place it since it dates from the beginning of my period of collecting (1789). asyn usually doesn't write with such a flourish, I wonder if he's hired a helper...

Asyn also offers a few of those elusive Russian Boubles

It definitly looks cleaned. Look at the top of the obverse.

I've gotten a few nice coins from this seller. I was pleased with what I purchased.

I've usually had good experiences with him too, but lately his grading has been increasingly off.

It may have not seen circulation, but hit has seen something harsh.

I also think that the medal was cleaned.

I have bought a few coins from Asyn myself - no problems, but he is one of those sellers where I usually grade the coin down by a full grade to find a realistic value. His images are usually large and clear so I don't consider that a problem. If the medal was cleaned, it should be noted though.
