<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wlwhittier, post: 25520216, member: 18320&quot;]I listed this on eBay recently, an&#039; it sold fairly promptly. As soon as the buyer received it, I got an eBay request for its return; the stated reason was that it had been &quot;trimmed&quot;. The buyer promptly returned it with my furnished label, left me positive feedback, an&#039; as soon as I received the coin I sent him a full refund, as well as positive feedback. All is well with him, an&#039; with eBay.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m not sure, but I think I&#039;ve seen that this coin <i>should</i> weigh 3 grams...mine is 2.5 grams. It is ~18.2mm long by ~10.9mm wide by ~1.9mm thick.</p><p>I have examined the four edges with a 10X triplet, an&#039; do not see any indication of missing material, nor do those areas show <i>any</i> difference in texture, patina nor other evidence of physical alteration. I&#039;m sorry that I cannot offer pics of those edges...my skills an&#039; equipment aren&#039;t sufficient to capture that level of micro-detail.</p><p>Tho&#039; I doubt the buyer had ulterior intent, I&#039;m puzzled about what I really have, an&#039; am considering having this coin professionally graded...which will be a first for me.</p><p>I beg your counsel about my story, an&#039; my plan to remove the quandary. Which of the several grading services would be y&#039;all&#039;s recommendation, an&#039; why? Any other comments an&#039; suggestions will be gratefully received, an&#039; acknowledged. Thanks for lookin&#039;!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1634345[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1634346[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1634347[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1634348[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
