[QUOTE="RonSanderson, post: 2659399, member: 77413"][B]Ooops...[/B] I mentioned that the USPS delivered the package my 1915-S was supposed to be in, except it was ripped open and had no coin. I tried again, putting a lowball bid on a coin on eBay. Their picture showed a coin with detail, but the image had zero color - none. Meanwhile, I emailed the seller and they had a second coin they were about to post. We worked it out. I took that one at the same price as the lost one, and they would get their money back from USPS. Then I also won my lowball bid. Apparently nobody else liked what the photo looked like. The second one showed up today. Now I'm a little over my budget. But they're both so darned nice. Which would you keep? Both raw, and my photos. I have included animations below if you want to see them moving. Coin A does have cartwheel luster but it is so shiny I could not capture it well. [B]Coin #1[/B], the replacement? [ATTACH=full]589663[/ATTACH] Or [B]Coin A[/B], the accident? (I don't see any lines on it in-hand.) [ATTACH=full]589662[/ATTACH] (Total cost = $300, so maybe I can keep both...) [B]#1[/B] [ATTACH=full]589665[/ATTACH] [B]#A[/B] [ATTACH=full]589664[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
