I have my suspicions with other sellers, in particular one from Spain. And this is why I haven't tried to clean any of my coins with a desert...
This is the first I've heard of it. Can you elaborate? Did someone get outed, here, or at FORVM, or elsewhere?
Ok, I'll give it a bath and see what happens. I'm not familiar with this seller, though - first time I've bought from him. There's always a chance...
:eek: You win. :)
Well, a quick glance through Wildwinds shows that all of the inscriptions are reversed from the way RIC catalogs them. Here is your coin,...

You know, you guys could consider the investment angle. My wife has instructions to consign my collection to CNG upon my demise, so ultimately she...
This. New sellers.
Had you bought from these sellers in the past without any problems?
Clearly Aliens.
What is the coin, Charles? I don't recognize it.
Sounds good. Will wait for your go-ahead. :)
So how does this thing work? I received two very nice little coins today which I photographed. Should I post them? I also received the coin I...
I seem to have missed this thread earlier. Great looking coin, Z!
