<p>[QUOTE="chirules54, post: 1501847, member: 27766"]I looked through some of his buying history, it does seem that he buys slabbed coins with au or unc detalis, polishes them up, and then relists them raw. I'm pretty sure a 38-d walker and 1926-s lincoln cent are the same coin that he first bought and then resold a few weeks later. To anyone but a novice they look like crap, the walker looks messed with and the 26s has wear across lincoln's cheek that would definitely keep it from a ms grade. He managed to make a nice profit on both. Check it out. Crossing my fingers that my coin isn't screwed up like those ones, it definitely wasn't obvious from the pictures like the other ones. Oh well, a learning experience either way, and I'm grateful for the return policy.</p><p><br /></p><p>26-s before</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/170792048032" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/170792048032" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/170792048032</a></p><p><br /></p><p>after</p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1926-S-GEM-BU-RED-Lincoln-Cent-VERY-RARE-KEY-DATE-NICE-STRIKE-/251109592748?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item3a774c4eac" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1926-S-GEM-BU-RED-Lincoln-Cent-VERY-RARE-KEY-DATE-NICE-STRIKE-/251109592748?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item3a774c4eac" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/1926-S-GEM-BU-RED-Lincoln-Cent-VERY-RARE-KEY-DATE-NICE-STRIKE-/251109592748?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item3a774c4eac</a></p><p><br /></p><p>38-d walker before</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/230793429986" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/230793429986" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/230793429986</a></p><p><br /></p><p>after</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1938-D-CHOICE-BU-WHITE-Walking-Liberty-Half-Dollar-SHARP-STRIKE-RARE-KEY-DATE-/251080737181?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item3a7594019d" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1938-D-CHOICE-BU-WHITE-Walking-Liberty-Half-Dollar-SHARP-STRIKE-RARE-KEY-DATE-/251080737181?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item3a7594019d" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/1938-D-CHOICE-BU-WHITE-Walking-Liberty-Half-Dollar-SHARP-STRIKE-RARE-KEY-DATE-/251080737181?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item3a7594019d</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Also an interesting buy.. lol.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/160769659061" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/160769659061" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/160769659061</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
