GSC 1915 Cent

Another member posted a picture from this listing on another thread. So I went and found it. Not an MPL by the way. Crazy how these are popping up in their store all of the sudden. How high will it go with 1 day left? I know one thing though, it wont be a raw coin much longer.

Gotta admit, that one looks rather nice on technical merit. I expect the current price to at least double by the time it's all said and done, although I doubt it exceeds 65 in a slab even if it does straight grade.

 

Cracked from a questionable color slab ?
Hmmmmmmm

 

I don't trust the images.

 

If it was that great it would be certified and not raw.
I don't trust this seller.

 

They have always been rather good at making the coins look nice in the pictures.

 

Is gonna fish hook someone. I am just glad I buy " in hand "coins only, I might make mistakes from not enough time under a loupe, but I don't make mistakes because I cant read their pics.

 

I think the details of the coin are nice, but considering the seller, I wouldnt doubt that that color is exaggerated. And I tend to take risks on ebay but the sellers I buy from typically cant take decent pictures or use photoshop. Anyone else selling it, I would proabbly lay down a bid. But for what that one will probably sell for, it isnt worth the risk.
