Remember this thread from a few days ago? If not, there it is to read.
Well, the Peace dollar arrived today. It was a pig in a poke to begin with and you guess it. . .

Not the cool looking coin I was hoping it might turn into.
I'm not discouraged though! No sadness here. I'll keep looking.

Seller's pics were pretty accurate. The hunt, it's the hunt. That what I tell myself when
I don't SCORE big.

That's a BU coin...you know what that stands for.

Some you win, some you lose

Too much time under the uv lamp can be bad for your complexion.

Oh dear. Bummer. It looks just like the auction pictures.

I gather you're returning it?

<< the old saying "you get what you pay for comes to mind" >>

I was thinking more "you win some and lose some."

Never.
My gamble. The seller did nothing wrong. In fact, I left him glowing feedback. With every risk comes the chances of reward, or in this instance, punishment.

Sorry about the coin, but

to the attitude!
If you are gambling, that is the right thing to do. If you are trying to work from an honest picture and no gamble, then a return comes in handy.
