<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 1762709, member: 36230&quot;]Not to my eyes.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Why do you think it really matters how a coin was restored? In this and other threads you&#039;ve implied that a nic-a-date and/or some other concentration of vinegar are unacceptable, but whatever you use somehow is. Regardless of what you may have read or think, restored is restored. I understand that one could make an argument for a more uniform appearance, but with a date like you are hoping this coin to be, what matters most is that there is absolutely no question about the date.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This makes absolutely NO sense, CG. Unless I somehow misunderstood you, if all coins are cheaper on ebay, why would any dealer buy person-to-person when all they need do is hop online to buy a comparable example for less? Why would anyone sell on ebay if the local dealers will always pay more? Have you ever thought about where many of the coins sold on ebay actually come from?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I do not mean this to be rude, but if you truly believe this, you are likely in for a very rude awakening.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I played around with one of your photos from the other thread, and if I may make a friendly suggestion; pay very close attention to the third digit. Considering how poor the image was, I am not comfortable making a definitive call either way, but will say that even with an overlay, I was unable to match the upper loop to that of an 8. With that said, I do hope that I am wrong and wish you only the best of luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
