    No sarcasm intended when I said "great information" I could return it if I don't like it,I'm not prejudice against clad kennedy's tho so who knows.

    No worries, I didn't take it as sarcasm :) I hope you like it, and you DID get a good price.

    I feel that the coin was falsely represented in the items description

    If it was you, would you want a refund if it turns out not to be silver?

    That's the last year they issues forty-percenters. There were two of them: a business strike and a proof.

    by all means I would certainly ask for a refund! If it is silver you got a heck of a deal for the melt value is near $11 at this point. Best of luck and please let us know what happens. Perhaps the seller is uninformed.
    I don't feel it is that pretty of a coin, to many problems.

    Although a look at some of the items the seller has sold makes on wonder.

    hmm, hopefully more sage folks will show up with an opinion

    I got the coin and weighed it up. It's a clad :/ I contacted the seller and he gave me a number to reach him so he could apologize.He offered to refund my money and let me keep the coin. I told him that wasn't necessary I wasn't mad and I wasn't going to leave him bad feedback. ( I am feeling nice today ) Then he said that recently he had received 3 PCGS slabbed Jefferson nickles and instead of giving me my $4.25 back, he would send me 1 PCGS slabbed Jefferson and I could still keep the Kennedy( This is the nicest Ebayer in the world ) So in the end I am satisfied. I almost feel like I ripped him off now lol.

    Glad to hear it all worked out for.
    He made a mistake and is correcting it with good customer service. Sounds like you did find a good eBay dealer.

    Just kidding. Glad it all worked out!

    Actually he mis-represented the coin so he is the one who was ripping someone off. I hope you learn a lesson from all this. Slabbed Jeff's are difficult to sell unless their something special. practically free, well many are anyways. :D good luck kid. :thumb:
