macmercury Pillar of the Community United States 5838 Posts	Posted 12/07/2012 06:48 am I am not surprise for the prices ebay seller place upon their items, there are some rediculus prices we all have seen too often. ebay is a great place for free advertisement, it used to be easy to sell, now everyone has budget awareness, hoping to find a rough gem. edit: Coins also can tone after in their respective holder (slab), but I agree with jokingjoker, it is rather distasteful.

CoinsKelly Pillar of the Community United States 3453 Posts	Posted 12/07/2012 06:57 am PCGS's own guide has it listed at $39 - this seller is hoping to cash in on the "monster toning" fad, IMHO. Report this Post to the Staff

mds308 Pillar of the Community United States 1721 Posts	Posted 12/07/2012 08:15 am I'm sorry, but this coin has ZERO eye appeal. The toning looks like it was removed with a strip of tape. Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 12/07/2012 1:25 pm If you are going to attempt to garner a significant premium for a very attractive toned coin, then you better be able to properly image that toning. The toning on that coin is either as hideous as it looks or the photographer did a really lousy job of accurately capturing the color Report this Post to the Staff
