30 day return on this coin. I seem to have gotten a good many lately that have had flaws disguised by the photographs. I keep returning them and getting refunds. Out of 28 purchases I've returned 9 and thinking about returning a 10th.

Just nuts. Bid is up to $135. I was out a long time ago. I'll report on what it sells for.

Sold for $202.50. I can't fathom it. No way this coin is worth that price.

Not worth anywhere near that price.

I agree with that sentiment
To be even remotely worth that it would need to slab straight grade 64RD at a bare minimum (and even then it would probably break even or lose money) If it comes back anything less than that, then the bid was way too high
But some people just like to blindly gamble on bad pictures, and have the money to not care if they lose it. To each their own, I guess, but I can't get behind that.

I was kind of stunned. I'll take a chance if I can lowball something like this, but once it gets into crazyland, I just sit back and watch.

Some sort of damage in the field in front of the figure seems like it would preclude higher grades regardless - can't address cleaning, but that pink tone is definitely odd. This is one that I wonder if the photos were taken with the idea of making flaws less obvious - most diplomatic way I can come up with to say it. It's a jungle out there.

I agree it was cleaned. Color was too pink.

I agree with other opinions. I see it as AU cleaned (dipped). Value is nowhere near what it sold for.
