<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 3137392, member: 25270"]I ordered a set of 2017 D and P half dollars advertised as UNC from a seller on eBay using stock photos. When they came, the 2017 D had a sizable gouge in Kennedy's chin. I'm not expecting MS-67 but I feel like the seller shouldn't send a coin with damage like this. I messaged him thinking he'd just say, "Sorry. Sure, I'll send another." Instead he sent a reply finely parsing the difference between UNC and BU. "The coins I send are UNC not B.U.If you want to sent the coin back, I will look at the coin,if the coin is UNC I will reimburse your payment,if not I will send you another coin." Granted he's going to either refund or send a replacement, but I just don't like how he is making it seem like my expectations are out of line. Is it unreasonable to expect UNC coins to not have gouges in them? I honestly don't know as I am not a collector who has ever been interested in grades. I just want a coin that isn't damaged.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
