    Just for fun. Post what you have that's just wrong. It can be ugly, pretty, AT or anything that's questionable.

    Very nice coin
    BUT
    It looks like someone decided to clean it, then changed his mind.

    It would be this one. I am an avowed “blast white” kind of guy. I bought this for all the wrong reasons and never enjoyed it. One of the very few coins I have ever sold with @CircCam help. God bless him.

    Didn't look so bad with some lights shined on it, but I think you made the right call in letting that one go... wasn't heading in the right direction from 65.

    Still looks like lipstick on a pig to me... But you astonished me with what you were able to do with that dog! I’ll never be able to thank you enough.

    Looks like the mastermind only cared about the Indian portrait, not the fields. Still cool coin.

    I guess most would consider this "terminal", but I like it.....

    Not sure what to make out of the toning on this one. It looks like it sat in ink for awhile. I tried acetone on it, but it didn't change. I do like it as is, but.......???

    I bought this one just because of the color. I knew it had been messed with but thought it was pretty. The crazy rims made it even more fun.
