<p>[QUOTE="jerryc39, post: 1709106, member: 48335"]so you are saying you liked how it looked in the first pics? If so than our tastes are different. Like I said before I know polishing a coin is a no no but this coin looked so terrible before it was actually an improvement. I have lots of better coins than this one that do not get handled improperly, rubbed, polished etc. I did not post this so everybody could bash me around and call me a novice. This was a cheap coin that I was unsure was silver by the hideous color it was. I am sure there are trade dollar gurus on here that might be more qualified to comment on its authenticity. It is no big deal if its real or not. If its real and worth more than 18.50 than great. If its not silver and is a cast fake the seller said he would like it back to learn how to tell a real from fake one in the future. It is worth the gamble to me to find out. If I was a trade dollar collector I would not buy a raw coin like this one for a lot of money. Everyone on here is so skeptical though. Does not encourage someone to post when they are belittled[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
