Well, he has an extensive list of interesting things. Gonna have to spend some time perusing that candy-store!
I agree, that Lafayette is low grade but it sure is something special! Great eye appeal on that piece.
20 years later and the guy offered a full refund? Someone link his website so I can go buy something. That is well beyond what I would have expected.
He clearly states it is a replica, several times. I wouldn't say it's nearly as horrible as many other listings that try to pass it off as the...
Two basic reasons: MS-70 is often applied with a Q-tip instead of submerging the coin. And, the MS-70 colors more often affect the patinated areas...

Wut? I totally missed that! Can you show us alternate pictures that show the wear? I'm not seeing it in your original pics.
The obverse spots and haziness give me pause. This is a look that I could see being natural, but I wouldn't buy it. I don't want to call it...
Any time you mention that guys name, its a touchy subject.
