If that was a VF coin I would like the toning a lot better. It almost looks like someone burried an MS coin to get it that dark. A long story...
I just love eBay. :) All the more reason for people to educated themselves before making big purchases. It amazes me how little research people...
That't the theory. Having used many pres bucks I think it is also easier to reach into my pocket for a buck rather than have to open my wallet.
I think the best you could do unless someone on here has put that set together is hope for many folks to post in all grades, take the best of...
