Given the number and size of the spots, I think interested parties will want to knock the coin two full grades. Still, from the right variety...
A very original 1909-S $5 Indian . . . [ATTACH][ATTACH] A surprisingly scarce 1874-S dime. I looked past the few marks to buy it for its...
Yes, that's a 26-S
The luster looks really intense . . . MS66.
Realistic? . . . nothing is realistic across the board, but pointing to the retail values in CDN's CPG, and explaining that he should expect a...
Likely the only one they could afford . . .

Careful . . . don't be callin' people names now. As for meeting at a show someday, I look forward to it.
I'm not trying to be argumentative either. There is only one point on which we disagree. I feel you should ask, and you don't. I'm curious...
The end does not justify the means . . . you should have asked and, if refused, you should have returned the coin.

I would have sided with you as well, but not because you have the right to remove a coin from a sealed or temper-evident holder . . . you do not....
