<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 1531723, member: 27832&quot;]Got two lots in yesterday:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/150894459063?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/150894459063?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649" rel="nofollow">Liberty Standing Half Dollar 1937- 1947-D (complete collection) nice 1938-D</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The &quot;nice 1938-D&quot; was a solid VG; unfortunately, it was the rare &quot;missing mint mark&quot; variety. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> The auction stated &quot;no returns&quot;, but of course Buyer Protection/SNAD trumps that. I&#039;m hoping the seller will credit me the difference in value, but I expect he&#039;ll want me to just send the lot back, especially now that its melt value is higher than the final price. We&#039;ll see.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Type-Set-antique-recent-nickels-Fine-BU-/170905264016?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&amp;ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;nma=true&amp;si=9zcouALd0yuz77iMVv%2B%2FYB684us%3D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;rt=nc" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Type-Set-antique-recent-nickels-Fine-BU-/170905264016?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&amp;ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&amp;nma=true&amp;si=9zcouALd0yuz77iMVv%2B%2FYB684us%3D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;rt=nc" rel="nofollow">Type Set-- antique &amp; recent nickels: Fine-BU</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The &quot;BU&quot; Buff turned out to be AU, polished. The V-nick might barely make F, but was also cleaned, as was the shield nickel (VF details at best). The half dime has dark, ugly toning and a scratch through Liberty&#039;s neck and head. The lot might still be worth what I paid for it, but it&#039;s going back anyhow, I think.</p><p><br /></p><p>Neither of these worked out, but I still think they were worth the gamble.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
