Fair points.
I agree that the buyer should have contacted the seller before bidding, hence my "While the buyer should have addressed this issue ahead of...
You folks are being too hard on the buyer here, and/or too easy on the seller. While the buyer should have addressed this issue ahead of time,...
Unfortunately, I believe that you are correct.
Personally, I wouldn't select a dealer based on ads in Coin World or anywhere else. I would get references from satisfied/happy collectors, based...
So do I. And, since that's the case, if you haven't already viewed this set, I think you'll enjoy it:...

It's not just cents and half cents which receive color designations, but two cent pieces, as well. For that matter, bronze/copper pattern coins of...
Let the coins call to you. Don't set out to buy a particular date at a given time. Instead, wait until you see nice examples at fair prices and...
Based on the image provided, it looks like an MS65RB or MS66RB to me - too nice for an MS64. I see hardly any flaws, and the surfaces are mostly...
The coin has been cleaned. Even if it started out life with a prooflike appearance, it could/would not have maintained it, once it circulated to...
