Who knows, I might write an article something along the lines of &quot;Buy the coin not the photo&quot; almost equivalent to &quot;Buy the coin, not the slab&quot; lol. That way it could explain the color differences and size. When I was new to collecting, I&#039;d get a coin and it looked different than the photo. Kind of puzzling and I was kind of annoyed about it, to be honest.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
