    I am making a new thread for this coin as I think it warrants it. I purchased an auction with quite a few coins, a number of them are "problem coins" that are cleaned / polished, etc... I am trying to sell these problem coins on ebay (completely honest and forthright of course) to recoup some of the cost from the nicer coins.

    I listed all the problem coins on ebay at .99 w/ free shipping (still like 5 days left) and I got a bit paranoid. I don't like selling things without knowing every little thing about them. So I bust out the CherryPickers guide and start cross referencing the ebay items. Low and behold, one of the coins is a newer variety. There's not very much on it online and I have yet to see an auction listing with the variety in it. Pictures as proof;

    Has anyone seen this before or know it's possible value? More information on this page:

    and this one

    They say it's an R-4 rarity and the value should be 30-50% more. It's a bummer that it is a cleaned coin because the details on it are pretty nice (minus the scratches).

    Thoughts?
