ericmckeown Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 09:18 am @ijn1944 Yes, the reverse is the same. I did some digging on his ebay store and he has several IHC's that look the exact same. These coins are all priced well below other seller's items in the same grade/toning.

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36883 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 1:13 pm Definitely cleaned. Report this Post to the Staff
Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10601 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 2:56 pm Definitely a bit too "bright" Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 5:16 pm Not just cleaned. A ten-buck EF coin deliberately stripped and recolored to look like new. Shameful. Report this Post to the Staff
ericmckeown Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 5:37 pm @coinfrog I blurred out the seller's logo in the photo so I didn't wrongfully accuse someone. But I'm thinking I should name the seller to inform others Report this Post to the Staff
halfamind Pillar of the Community United States 1506 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 5:52 pm Dead giveaway is the retained traces of natural coloring around the devices, especially near the lettering. Report this Post to the Staff
ericmckeown Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 5:55 pm Good catch halfamind. The more I look at it, the worse it gets! Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 6:15 pm Look at the worn ribbon, with one full diamond missing. Please do name the seller. Report this Post to the Staff
ericmckeown Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 6:20 pm I noticed the ribbon too. That was my first suspicion. Report this Post to the Staff
ericmckeown Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 6:22 pm I didn't see an edit button, at least on mobile, to link the seller in my original post. Here is the link to their ebay store: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_ss...heastauction Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 6:39 pm Check out the gem 1913-S, 1914-S and 1915-S Lincolns on his site - all the same coin with the same surfaces, just altered dates. Report this Post to the Staff
ericmckeown Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 6:43 pm Oh wow! Unbelievable. His reviews say it all. Many people have been burned it looks like. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75077 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 11:06 pm Definitely has been cleaned and recolored. Avoid this coin at all costs. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10601 Posts	Posted 03/12/2024 11:56 pm Well, when in doubt - first and easiest thing to do is just check the seller's feedback. Report this Post to the Staff
