<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dimeguy, post: 1006217, member: 19855&quot;]And I&#039;m still disappointed. I decided to try a simple dime. Nothing fancy, a vf 1934 large D. Reason is that I wanted to see if I could distinguish the mintmark variety and grade online. After some searching I found one, bought it for 9 dollars, and it arrived today. Conclusion: still not happy. I&#039;ll stick with the dealer. I don&#039;t care if it takes my dealer five years to help me fill in the random missing holes in my album I would rather rely on him than the pics on Ebay. Here&#039;s the pics of the dime. My thinking is that the pic didn&#039;t truly match up from the online version. The coin I recieved is indeed the coin, but it has unnatural fields to me...very shiney (hard to picture on the camera but you can definately tell the bright white field from the very dark areas around the lettering). I&#039;m not sure if that is indicative of being cleaned, dipped, polished but it seems this coin is very bright and reflective for the detail that is presented. Oh well, live and let learn for 9 dollars.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/xx292/dimeguy_2010/newmerc004.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/xx292/dimeguy_2010/newmerc008.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
