Since the images struck against the coin are incuse, I'd have to think it was squished against other coins. Neat to look at, but not an error....
And I've learned something new today! Thanks for the info, CBJesse!
I think maybe a zero is missing - $250.00?
Yeah, my thoughts exactly. I only paid about $20 each for these coins, so by the time I would have them conserved and graded, I'd be into them...
I suppose that would put the ball in their court, right? They'd kind of be obligated to grade it if they conserved it... ;)
[ATTACH][ATTACH] [ATTACH]Quick pics of both coins for the sake of conversation. Sorry about the reflections, particularly on the 10 Franc -...
Unfortunately, both have been removed and put in flips at this point.
It looks like at least an 0/0 overdate.
You know how sometimes there are questions you know the answers to, but you ask anyways? I have two coins (well, more than two, but for the sake...

As for fairly fortunate, I've bought literally hundreds of coins on eBay, and had many of them graded. This is the first one that came back as a...
[ATTACH] This little guy is my smallest coin - Ceylon (Sri Lanka) 1/4 Cent.
I just got the results on my walker from PCGS - it came back cleaned. Still a pretty coin, none the less. I emailed GSC to see what they can do,...
I got my walker from them - out getting graded now. Coin looked pretty good in hand, not worried about cleaning, but I'm curious to see if it...
Based on the pictures posted, I'd say those are fair grades. The 5 kopek coin has just about all of the high surfaces knocked off - I'd say a...
I mean, even with the exchange, this would be no more than an ASE and it's a first time issue. It'd be neat to say you had one, right? Plus...
I'm interested in this coin - but do I understand correctly that it is only available to UK buyers? Humbug to that...
