<p>[QUOTE="Sean5150, post: 2313271, member: 75607"]Ebay is an amazing place. You have every kind of coin you could imagine there. Chinese fakes, "estate" co ins cleaned with an orbital buffer, some decent coins sellers want 300% of greysheet for, and some great finds. I got lucky with this one. It's just a common date, but it's a VAM 7A, which is pretty cool. I thought I'd share it. Check out the rust pits on the wings.[ATTACH=full]466497[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]466498[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]466499[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit:The hardest part of finding coins on Ebay is the price is rarely commensurate with the quality. I used to think "that seller is asking a lot for that one, it must be good for the grade", but then I realized there are just greedy sellers. Then there are honest sellers with good prices whose coins don't sell because people think something must be wrong with them. Then there are people who think all coins look the same. That's how I got this one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
