<p>[QUOTE="Player11, post: 955947, member: 26725"]Describing Rare Coins on the Bay is subjective. I don't see a problem with the sellers description. There is no substitute with just a scan and in this instance there could be a description paste job that needs edititing. Quite frankly, its a rather nice coin. I have seen people in the industry define any non brilliant coin as toned. </p><p> </p><p>I have never understood why people in these forums want to nit pick sellers listings on the bay or take some derogotory cheap shot at someone they don't even know ("used car salesman"). In interfacing with certain individuals at shows from my table who have derogotory comments about dealers or nit pick coins they have no budget or interest in anyhow, my take is they mainly are essentially broke. When the BS starts, its time for them to leave my table. The people with money look at the coin and decide for themselves if they will be acquiring it or not and could care less about some sellers description. If price is an issue, they keep their mouth zipped and will lay their money on the table and make a counter offer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
