<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 817717, member: 13650&quot;]I was wondering the same thing.&nbsp; Why hasn&#039;t this one been sent in yet?&nbsp; For being this nice, it raises red flags.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; The seller is making a claim that can&#039;t be proved or disproved without sending it in and getting it graded.&nbsp; Which, by the time you would get it back from grading, there&#039;s no sending it back for a refund.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; There is much to know about the SLQ series.&nbsp; Many of them, even in high grades, have very weak details on the high points.&nbsp; Such as the head and the rivets around the shield.&nbsp; On most, these details are rarely defined.&nbsp;&nbsp; I would guess that Lehigh knows what he&#039;s talking about in that these 1917 TY 1&#039;s must have been hammered pretty good overall.&nbsp; This is a very detailed example of a SLQ, compared to average.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; The seller is trying to promote their item and have uninformed people run up the price, without techincally breaking the rules or doing anything wrong.&nbsp;&nbsp; Gem BU is thrown around A LOT on ebay with no real firm definition.&nbsp; It&#039;s a safe way of saying it&#039;s high grade &quot;without knowing exactly what it is.&quot;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Which with these, the difference between one point grade at these levels can be hundreds, to thousands.&nbsp;&nbsp; A Full Head designation on a slab will increase the price as well.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; On this one, it looks like it has a better chance of being FH than not, but we don&#039;t know.&nbsp; It hasn&#039;t been graded.&nbsp; &nbsp; A lot of questions with this one to be bidding it up haphazardly.&nbsp;&nbsp; Like the average ebayers will be....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
