<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 592201, member: 13650&quot;]Thank you Lehigh!&nbsp; I&#039;m just about ready to not respond to this poster anymore because for the past week he has shown us ZERO effort that he&#039;s actually trying to learn anything.&nbsp; He obviously won&#039;t buy or read a book or even just read here.&nbsp; He&#039;s just anxious to blow money on anything cheap he runs across.&nbsp;&nbsp; So it&#039;s getting tiresome.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; There&#039;s so many holes in this auction that it&#039;s hardly worth the response.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; - Pictures too far away and not very good</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; - Anyone with an authentic, NT Mercury dime like this would have huge close ups trying to get top dollar</p><p>&nbsp;-&nbsp; A normal Merc dime in this condition is worth a couple bucks.&nbsp; This went for 1.31!!!!!!!!!!!!!!&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;- There&#039;s no way to judge if it&#039;s even real.&nbsp; This could be a fake, Chinese copy purchased here:&nbsp;&nbsp; <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/Replica-Mercury-Head-Dimes-1920_W0QQitemZ270392446708QQihZ017QQcategoryZ162126QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/Replica-Mercury-Head-Dimes-1920_W0QQitemZ270392446708QQihZ017QQcategoryZ162126QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/Replica-Mercury-Head-Dimes-1920_W0QQitemZ270392446708QQihZ017QQcategoryZ162126QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a></p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; for 0.10, without the replica stamp of course, with some common, fake chemicals used to see how many suckers they could bait.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; - Assuming it is real and we&#039;re just judging for natural toning without ever looking at the price, how many Mercury dimes have toning like this?&nbsp;&nbsp; I would say most of the time, the toning isn&#039;t on both sides of a coin and if it is, it usually does not cover the whole surface of both sides, let alone two different color patterns.&nbsp; As in Lehighs pic, the area toned is vastly different.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;- The color patterns are not natural when compared to any number of real toned mercs.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; - True steals on ebay are not common.&nbsp; There&#039;s too many eyes watching to let a 100, or 50 or 20 dollar coin go for 1.31.&nbsp; Premium stuff costs premium $$.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Are there bells and whistles going off yet?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
