A highly polished real VF IMO.
Throwing it in silver test solution or a rock tumbler would break the ugly polish. Still a cull but not as ugly.

It's at $63 with 11 bids and 6 days of auction left. That's pretty sad. The listing does say polished, but it's buried way down in a block of little text. Their store usually has quality stuff, I don't know why they even bothered with that particular coin.

I think it's a combination of harsh polishing and lighting.

It's a bummer that it's polished.  Errers and Varietys.

Definitely polished. Too bad, just a hole filler now.

1921 is a key date. There is a demand for coins even in cleaned condition. I personally wouldn't buy one in this grade though.

The seller is legit, honest in my opinion. I've bought several coins from him. My brother lives a few blocks from his business. He does not sell over the counter, not a walk in store, just ebay. He will evaluate coins that are brought in and make offers by appointment. His ebay store used to be called vette1986 but changed his store name to Hunting for Treaszure Coins. Edited by livingwater

I've purchased from him as well, and enjoyed the coins I bought. This one was hideous, though. It does not seem worth $156.50 in a Details grade.

I've bought before and was happy with the purchase. He's not hiding the fact that it's a polished coin so it's up to the buyer to understand what they're paying for. |
