<p>[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 25996091, member: 22377"]Everyone definitely has their preferences and the coin isn't terrible, especially if one did not pay as much as I did! However, the break in the toning, particularly the portion around the stars to the left of the date, distracts from the eye appeal. I also had to go through multiple venues (Instagram, the forums, coin show, and eBay) before the coin finally sold on eBay. I did want to minimize my losses so that was part of the reason it took long to sell (had I done a no reserve auction, it would have been quick but probably even more painful).</p><p><br /></p><p>And I appreciate that this thread has been enjoyed. I've made my share of mistakes this year and paid the price on resale. I did have some positive sales but not everything can be sold for a profit (and part of the lessons learned is knowing when to take a loss on a coin that you just don't want to keep).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
