    This is what i got as a response from an ebay seller. what do you guys think is this professional? Do I have right to a pic or should i just take the word? Thanks.

    Hi again; No, I'm not going to take any more photos of the coins. Whatever you think you see on the half dollar is NOT an imperfection on the coin. What you think you're seeing is likely light refraction as a result of photographing Proof Coins with mirror-like surfaces. If you cannot trust my description, I suggest you DO NOT BID ANYMORE. This items primary value is in the gold and silver content. I can't say or do anything else since I've already confirmed that all coins are virtually FLAWLESS!.

    LOL the seller had the nerve to reply and tell me I was making a good decision by not buying from him.

    Another braindead vendor on eBay.To me,it sounds like a real scam similar to the ones that Pamela 'the Savannah Scammer' Donnelly & her teddy bear were pulling off.

    That guy could care less about customer service and we are all glad he is so careless to demonstrate that fact... This guy was probably dropped as a baby and has had a crabby demeanor ever since. I bet his feedback has a few negatives among them.

    If you want a photo before you buy, and don't have any reason to trust the seller, then why consider buying from them? I know sellers I *would* trust, but this guy sounds lazy, has no customer service (and this si *before the sale* sheesh), plus he may just be selling junk to people who don't ask questions and don't know better. It *might* be OK, but IMHO, not worth even considering when you can find it from someone else.
