[QUOTE="davidh, post: 455848, member: 15062"]I am the one who communicated with you requesting information on this coin. I may have been a bit snide in my statement about whether you did, in fact, send actual photos of the coin but your relatively secretive offering wasn't exactly forthcoming regarding what you had. For a coin of this rarity and value, ebay isn't the expected venue for selling. I even doubt that those with the wherewithal to purchase a coin like this even waste time looking at ebay. I did ask you for the provenance of the coin but you chose not to respond. In the end, it may be none of my concern where you got it, but the lineage of such a piece would go a long way toward proving authenticity. Not that I am in any position to even think of buying it, but my interest would come to a crashing halt if you were to say, for instance, that you found it in a trunk in your recently deceased grandfather's attic. Your method of sale pretty much left it up to the buyer to do the legwork of determining what was being sold. I simply feel that you, as the seller, should have been more totally up front with what you were offering.[/QUOTE]
