    I bought this one for a bargain. The seller actually admitted that it was sent to a TPG and came back as cleaned (which shows they thought highly of it as well). I find it really attractive and glad I don't have to bust it out of a slab to fit in my raw type set anyway :)

    Cleaned? Really? I can't see any signs of cleaning. What I see is a nice looking coin. :)

    1969-S Proof Lincoln Cent (PCGS PR67RB). This came in the mail today and was about 100x better than the sellers muted photo. I can only describe this as radioactive. This coin has an older cert number -- and I found an old 2008 auction of it on Teletrade in the same slab, so it's at least 7 years old and pretty stable. It just lights up like a firecracker in indirect sunlight. I shot this a few hours ago with my iPhone. Wow.

    Here is the sellers photo in the eBay ad from a few days ago ...

    [​IMG]



    This is the old Teletrade listing from 2008 ... (Even the old Teletrade images are a bit muted compared to the coin in hand -- but def. better (more representative) than the eBay seller's photo from last week).
