What do you think?

Do you think this coin on teletrade would look good in real life? I have a hard time trying to judge their photos.

    maybe you can get just the reverse for $15-$30!! that obverse screams "pass me up" but such is the market for toned coins today that the reverse will carry it. it's kinda like a proof with a fine cameo on one side only.

    Maybe I could get the obverse to tone the same image

    I wouldn't get it. It's already up to $75. I might have gone up to $50.

    It doesn't do much for me. Certainly not anything worth a big premium. I'd stay away. Also being on the reverse hurts.

    PASS!!!!! The reverse looks spoiled, like moldy sour cream or somethingimageimage

    I would rather have brighter toning, i bet that coin will be completly brown in a short period of time, but thats just my opinion.

    I would buy it because I am sure it will be cheap and if you don't like it you could sell it very easy. image mike

    pass, it's dull and too much chatter on the obverse.

    TELETRADE photos are deceiving. They APPEAR to "show it all" but in reality don't or can't show luster and the colors are muted.

    There is a cottage industry of Dealers buying up Teletrade lots and eBaying them at considerable markups.
    (The giveaway is most of them forget to remove the Teletrade inventory decal on the back of the slab).

    No.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.

    Too much for me now I was looking at it when it was $60.
    It will probably be on eBay in a couple weeks for $200+ image
