mdh157 Pillar of the Community United States 952 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 7:35 pm that's a lot of $$.........and the luster is unnatural for an FE. Getting the bids though. Report this Post to the Staff
upstate Pillar of the Community United States 3283 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 8:02 pm No disrespect intended but I think that coin looks amazing. Looks too awesome to be real. That is why I would never buy anything like that unless it was slabbed, that is I don't know what I'm doing. (and I'm no fan of grading companies or their product) Report this Post to the Staff

Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 8:24 pm its buffed up to look like that, its not original surfaces. Anytime you see the devices so shiny like that it usually means it has seen a polishing wheel Report this Post to the Staff

GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 8:56 pm I can't see why that coin is getting so many bids. I have seen a lot of FE's, I never seen one that looks more polished than that one. Report this Post to the Staff

CEOcoinshop Valued Member United States 186 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 9:00 pm Run Forrest Run. I notice other key date coins that are slabbed. For high end coin, wouldn't you spend the 25 bucks? Report this Post to the Staff
DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 02/08/2011 9:08 pm I'm relieved it's not an 1858/7; the markers are missing. Do you suppose that thing would slab? Report this Post to the Staff
