This arrived today so I thought I'd give it a spin around the forum. Let's do two guesses: Grade on slab Grade you think it actually is [ATTACH]...
Bump for thoughts on value vs. purchase price. See above... Thanks!
So let's play the "did he pay too much?" game. Coin One 1855: $32 Coin Two 1848: $26 [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

Hey all. Just bought some circulated 40% halves from board member ilmcoins and this cool toner was in the batch. Just thought I'd throw it up here...
Which major eBay sellers would you recommend as honest and reliable?
Obviously the slab on this one is a sham, but what about the coin itself. I know the 80/81 S coins are graded on a curve, but this one looks...
Thoughts on whether or not this has been cleaned or artificially toned? I don't buy the PL claims, but it looks like an interesting coin if it...

I held off. It ended up selling for $270. I have a real hankering for a DMPL coin but I also like a great deal!?!? What to do?
