Also, looks harshly cleaned and/or overdipped out. Oooo, I didn't notice that...How much do you think the cleaning or dipping might drop the value? |

I appreciate the comments about the silver content. If I were considering a $60,000 coin, finding out it is made of ACTUAL SILVER would definitely close the deal.
What a crock!

isn't great you can buy Jesus in a Box or a coin? or a can? would that be nice? Actually, it's funny you say that. I'm not a hard core religious-type of any denomination, but I had to have a bronze prutah from Pontius Pilate's reign in Judea for exactly this reason. No, Jesus didn't touch it, use it, look at it, spit at it, or anything... BUT it is a REAL relic that can be traced with some certainty to within a few miles and years of one of the most (if not THE most) significant historical events EVER. Even if it immediatly left Judea or got buried in dirt and was never used, it came out of the mint there. To me that is fascinating, and for that reason, this little crumb of bronze is one of my favorites in my collection. =) That's awesome (in a very literal sense of the word, for me). RE: this nutcase? Yeah pathetic. "None of the TPG's would certify this as authentic"... hm, I wonder why... Could be YOU'RE BRAINDEAD. Oh well. Edited by delaner

I've been to one world's fair, a picnic, and a rodeo, and that's the stupidest thing I ever heard.

That seller, IMHO, is a certifiable head case. He's listed other fairly common error coins and varieties for ridiculous prices before.
Which TPG is he certified by? Quote:"None of the TPG's would certify this as authentic"... hm, I wonder why... Could be YOU'RE BRAINDEAD. Oh well. Do you think they would certify HIM as authentic? |

Hey guys.Because of amount of *Holy*coins on ebay my postulate is: 1)None of TPG wont grade it so lets make one  2)For the begining I propose 4 different grading sections a)Jesus b)Mary c)Cross d)all the rest ind all Saints and Martyrs. Grading scale can always be discussed here.I would grade this one for ex: Cross XF 45. Being serious guys-for me is another way to rip off buyers or case of head problem or both. |

No shadow, his brain has not been cleaned, just overdipped.

If it was overdipped in anything aside from cerebrospinal fluid, such as jewelry cleaner (which is probably the case), it could lead to environmental damage.
