[QUOTE="furryfrog02, post: 7924628, member: 41219"]I saw this coin several weeks ago and it didn't sell for the listed price. It was relisted so I sent the seller an offer and it was accepted. I wasn't a huge fan of the color of the coin but I loved the design, I'm sure those of you know me will soon see why... Anyways, the coin arrived in the mail today and I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the envelope. Instead of a dull brown, it was a nice dark green patina. I'm not sure what set up the seller has but it really did not do the coin justice. Let's see some of your seller vs in-hand surprises.
