This seller says that if his coin doesn't sell on ebay this time that he's going to send it off to NGC to get it graded a MS-68. I wouldn't be surprised if that coin comes back in a body bag! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...tToStoreCat&refwidgettype=cross_promot_widget
STUNNING SUPERB TONED GEM MS-67 1934 WASHINGTON QUARTER WHAT BEAUTIFUL COIN! Toned in dirt is this a joke:loud:
I had already thought this was hilarious :mouth: just reading the description and seeing the picture, but then, I saw the starting bid and buy it now price.
Actually it looks like the toning I've seen on some rather high grade Franklin Halves. Talking MS64-65 PCGS coins with similar toning. I wouldn't want one in my collection but I guess that's a personal opinion. Now as for this coin going at MS67-68. I don't think so - he's just trying to make a sale for big bucks. Sent it to NGC dude.
Starting bid: US $5,950.00 Buy It Now price: US $6,450.00 Nice, for a $20 coin. I wish that I could get profit margins like that!
Civil War in 1867 How about the Civil War 2 cent coin dated 1867? Truly a rare piece huh? Ebay item # 130124505693 Ok so some people are still fighting the Civil War today, that makes my 2007 nickle a Civil War coin too!
Being a 2 Cent afficianado I can assure you that the coin in question is truly a small pile of dung! ....and four dollars to ship it!?!
Looks a lot like mint set toning. Yes I know there were no mint sets that year, but sometimes you can also find toning like that in coins that were stored in the old Whitman folders. (On mint set coins people pay a premium for toning that looks like that.)
