    Well, this coin arrived today, which took me by surprise on account of the fact that I had completely forgotten that I ordered it. Not good, huh? Maybe I should slow down and buy fewer coins? Ha haha hahahahhahahhahha!

    No, same coin. First pic is seller's, second pic is mine. This coin has a very entertaining patina.

    Looks good, JA (I like both photos) ...

    Ummm, I'm assuming that your photo is a more realistic likeness, compared against the seller's photo?
