Recently bought this coin. These are the sellers pics. I usually don't buy off of ebay, but, if this coin can make EF, it was a decent price IMO. All opinions welcome! I'll have to wait to see if the color is ok or not. Thanks in advance!

Photo a little too dark to tell what the color and surfaces look like. VF-30 if unmolested.

Looks possibly recolored to me, maybe the lighting, but the coin condition is nice. A quick dip in acetone would reveal the real color fast. Might squeak out VF35 but that's it. If you don't like it, send it back. Imo, you overpaid a bit.

edweather, I agree. I'll check out the color in hand. If it doesn't look right I will send it back. It was an impulse buy. If it's a solid coin, I will probably just keep it. I will post pics when I get it in hand.

She arrived today. I took these pics with my phone (as always). I like the color. It looks problem free and shy of EF. I will keep her even though I overpaid. Thanks for the discussion fellow coin freaks!
