Ebay's so greedy that they'll take 5 minutes to think of something that sort of looks like a benefit, then they'll sit up all night figuring how...
The bucks you earn now will not be tallied up until the first week of October, as far as I know. If they don't show up then, you have a beef.
In addition, some coin museum somewhere would probably like to have them, and would mark them appropriately; then everyone benefits from the...

Maybe so. My Latin teacher did not tolerate "rough" translations, and after all, she was born before Marcus Aurelius. :D
I like the very strong date; to me, that's a big plus. I'd like it as a type coin.
It's not a rough translation, it IS the translation (in Latin): he made (it), used in the fields of art, sculpture, and architecture for the most...
It isn't necessarily cheapskates caving in. There's yet another reason. People have budgets. The coin you won cheaply might have been the 3rd...
Another factor, if someone bids in an auction unknown to them, and one or more coins turns out to be horrible, guess who gets blamed, explicitly...

Oh, well, doesn't matter. You're not going to change, I'm not going to change. It's for my heirs anyway, not for me. One thing for sure, I...
The precious metals markets are impossible to predict. It is important, however, that the gap between silver "spot" and silver "retail" has grown...
NOBODY knows what to expect "going forward," or we'd all be billionaires...
That's the RARE goiter variety...
Fortunately, it's worth $5 in good karma to have a pocket-piece you can show other collectors to help protect them from spending $50 on such a...
I defer to a guy with an eBay Store, folks who know the market. I would have thought moving up to MS-63 involves considerable bucks, but I guess not.
That entire bottom legend "416 One Yen 900" looks flaky to me, and I have never seen a die crack (or whatever) like runs through the Y of yen....
I doubt if that coin would go EF, it's too "flat" and thoroughly nicked-up. WLH22 has the right answer - pass, spend $40 more, and get a graded...
