[QUOTE="Ana Silverbell, post: 2585418, member: 75156"]The trade dollar has die polish lines but without holding the coin in hand it is hard to tell if it doesn't also have scratches from a cleaning, it may. Apart from scratches, I think it was cleaned because the fields appear uneven in color. The Indian cent's color looks unnatural to me. I like the Peace dollar. I don't see any issues with it but that could change if I had it in hand. I don't know about the Indian gold. I have no experience with them. As far as GSC goes, I do not buy from them because it appears to me that the bids on their coins tend to be higher compared to comparable coins/sellers on eBay: [I]i.e.[/I], the bids almost always rise higher than my pre-set, upper limit. Has anyone else noticed this? This may be because GSC has a high number of loyal, repeat buyers but I don't know. As far as keeping the coins, it depends on the price you paid compared to the value of a similar "details" coin. I probably would return all of them but the Peace dollar.
