[QUOTE="ldhair, post: 3222395, member: 11540"]I have my own little set of rules for coins like this. If I'm face to face with the dealer and the coin, it's my problem if I mess up. If I buy it from images, I have to know the dealer and that he will take it back if I can't live with it. If I keep the coin and send it in for grading, it's my problem as long as it's genuine. If it's fake, I expect the dealer to step up and take care of the problem. As a collector, I can live with a nice 200 year old coin coming back in a problem holder. I liked the coin when I bought it. It's still the same coin. At least it's in a holder to help protect the coin. As a dealer it would suck to have it come back as a problem. Sure puts a damper on it bringing a strong price. Going back to the OP coin. I still like it based on the images. Those that have actually held the coin have better opinions.[/QUOTE]
