<p>[QUOTE="Boss, post: 496803, member: 15110"]"This guy" happens to be me (sidebar: someone should post a forum on how people speak more unkindly in cyberspace verses face to face). If you met me face to face you wouldn't impolitely refer to me as "some guy". I felt this coin was cleaned because in the obverse pics the coin has the "halo" effect, i.e., there is no cartwheel luster. My local dealer, whom I trust well, and who has an excellent reputation among longtime collectors where I live felt strongly it was overdipped. Some others have as well, felt it was cleaned (read through all these posts), so it's not black and white. I started this thread in a friendly manner. If you disagree you can state so kindly, but I take offense to your manner of speaking. Sorry to be so direct Mr Leadfoot. I wonder how many who post here have met face to face? I think both Spock and Dru need to as the post they were fighting on is an example of cyberspace antagonism. It's easier to be rude to people you don't have to face. I don't say this in any spirit of antagonism. Just my honest observations. :hug:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
