I am having trouble reading the labels on your post with the cover. Would love to know what they all are
I am 99.9% certain it is ink and done by someone intentionally...why? Notice how the largest stain pattern hugs and perfectly conforms to the...
Hmmm. You have a point there...I checked and can't look up other sales other than what's listed.
It is possible. But the way it is priced, I doubt it. I can't imagine this person wouldn't ask around about what he/she had before pricing it....

Not at all. But I'm not talking about newly dipped ones. I have a 2017 $50 buffalo that already has red toning and it is slabbed. I am...
Because I know some dealers at the monthly shows in Buffalo who openly talk about getting rid of some pieces they are stuck with. They also flat...
