    The heck? That's just messed up! How does that even happen? Worn reverse but full steps? Machined?

    It could be a reportable offense as he lists "FS" in the title, but grade is only allowed in the title if it is certified that way.
    "FS" is a grade that is given by NGC, and is a grade not attained by this coin or noted as such in the grade by NGC.
    I know it's kind of a roundabout arguement for reporting an item when anyone who might buy it can see it for themselves, but it is a fact.

    Since "FS" is an attribute rather than a grade, he may be using that as a loophole.

    I once won an auction by that seller (he has or had multiple eBay selling accounts) and he reneged on the sale, claiming the coin had already been sold. That was AFTER he invoiced me and took my money! I left him a negative feedback and he bombarded me with a series of threatening emails which I reported to eBay. The particular selling account he was using for my transaction got NARU'd.

    Yep. I am going to start slapping homemade stickers on my items. It's not like this thing is even close to full steps. I am also very surprised such a terrible strike could even get a 67. Either way, very deceptive.
