Message:: [QUOTE="Endeavor, post: 2451239, member: 60292"]If the purchase was made in April then I would not contact the seller. If it really bothers you, you could send the seller a very polite message explaining that you only now realized the coin was different when you went to photograph it AND that you also see the original coin is now listed again. I would not have any expectations of a favorable reply but it might not hurt to take a shot. Again, only if it really bothers you. As for the coin itself, I personally don't find the spots (possible "environmental damage"?) to be appealing. However, as others have posted, the coin you received has wear on some of the letters so that pretty much cancels out with the spots, in my opinion. As [USER=73174]@Markus1959[/USER] points out, there may be some hints of abrasions from light cleaning on the coin received. If that is the case then it makes the possibility of bait & switch more realistic (as a means to unload cleaned coins). I'm not saying that is what is happening here or that it is likely. If I were OP I would chalk this one up to a learning experience since the discrepancy was noticed beyond 30 days from the date received. Need to check those coins closely upon receiving them.[/QUOTE]
