As someone that collects the Austrian niobium and silver bimetallic coins, I was surprised to learn there is another related item to that...
Either a typo or what Beefer said with a place holder is my guess. I've bought from that seller on eBay before and the prices were reasonable.
I'll give the Franklin a 5. (I'm also a bit skeptical of the photo being juiced) Overall, I like it but I've seen several Franklins that are...
Technically the raw cent posted, but it looks like the results are are inconclusive since it is hard to tell much from the photo. @Morgandude11...
Lots of history there and a great first piece for your world collection. :)
Here is another I've owned. This one I didn't even notice until I took the picture (even though it was failry obvious). :p [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

This one caused quite a stir (it used to be in my collection) [IMG]
I like these too and agree it is more fun than the generic chunk of bullion. Here are a few I have (these weren't quite bullion buys though). Now...
I get it and agree with your point. A good example would be a show dealer with a lot of nice toned coins. He would prefer to sell to collectors...
MS 63 (luster carries it past 62 in my opinion)
Your examples make sense. With eBay generic coin sales it makes much less sense to refuse a sale to a customer that doesn't raise any flags. There...
You're doing it wrong. :p When in doubt, wait until the reveal and write the same grade as on the holder plus something like "this was my grade...
MS 64
As far as the scores, my initial plan was to focus on Morgans. So that definitely causes problems when we evaluate other series (and has led to...
I'll give the Lincoln cent a 2 (the picture is blurry, so I'm giving it the benefit of doubt)
