Gold coins will tone. I make no claims as to the originality of the toning on this piece. [IMG] :smile
I understand your point, but to call an MS65 DuVall 3-D Lafayette Dollar trash or compare it to a Liberian Elvis thingy is just a little harsh,...
The fact that someone named their store the coin collecting shop might be funnier than his item description.
Are you serious? I am sending you a PM!
With regards to the auction listing below: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120464909411&_trkparms=tab%3DSelling#ht_2536wt_1165...
This might be the funniest line I have ever seen in an E-Bay coin description! NOTE TO EBAY and those who report my auction. this coin has been...
