It might have been used under a chair leg so as not to mar the floor.

the toning doesn't look natural IMO. I agree with Back Off Boogaloo in that natural toning like seen on the reverse would be extremely rare. I deffinately would not buy it before it comes back from NGC and you see a pic of it NGC certified.

Maybe he's submitting it to the NGC - China Branch? I'm no expert on toning, but it seems to me this isn't natural. ~ Jim

Demand (in writing) that if NGC bodybags it, which they will, that your money will be 100% refunded. In other words, play with the guys head a little. Quote: who do they think there fooling Not us obviously but there are plenty of uneducated beginners out there that will bid on this coin. Pretty sad.

Since when do people actually like toned silver eagles? I thought that all modern bullion coins were considered best when white.
