Jallen, That's a very good observation. The coin did seem a bit "shiny" to my eye once I took it out of the 2x2. I also see some bumps around...
I've never had a problem with hairlines on the holder. Acrylic is tougher than many realize.
To save you the trouble of flipping back to page 1, here are the seller's photos: [img] [img]
Here you go... Nothing was done to these photos, either in-camera or in post-processing other than: 1) Corrected white balance in-camera (grey...
I am happy to hear you are happy. :)

Optimistically, I think the seller must have not seen many war nickels, and he is mistaken about the *. ;) To the latter point, he has a * coin...
I love these new holders. Make photos look a bit odd, but they allow a view of the edge through the slab, and really improve a shortcoming of...
lol It's an original MPL. That's often what they look like when they've not been dipped at ATed.
$900. Nice coin.
