<p>[QUOTE="DonnaML, post: 4117370, member: 110350"]I made the seller an offer for $40 under the asking price and he or she promptly accepted it, so I'm now the pleased owner of this coin. I'm curious to see how it looks in person -- I suspect that the photos were taken under a lot of illumination and that the original is probably quite dark -- but I'm perfectly OK with that given the comparatively low price. I know I'm not going to find another one right now with complete legends and visible details for less money -- and ebay just showed me another example in a slab that doesn't look materially better, from a dealer who calls himself "high rating low price," for $4,400![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
