General guidance. If your primary interest and spending are not in pre-1965 coins, you don't need it. If they are, then maybe (see Specksynder's...
Take a look at 380191059975 on eBay. And don't worry if you miss this one. There's 137 more exactly like it. BTW, I don't know how much good it...
A seller can't refuse a return if you use PayPal no matter what they say in their TOS. And the only official payment method according to eBay is...
I buy on eBay when the correct coin gets listed. "Correct" coin for me means: - issue/date/mm/grade that I need for my collection (no impulse...

IMO, F-12 and VG-8
Pictures out of focus. Hard to tell. But it looks like the breast on both the eagle and Liberty have been flattened. And there appears to be marks...

For me, keeping the coin as close to the same condition as when I bought it is #2, just behind acquiring the coin (which is #1). Hence, if I buy...
