Some cameras tend to strip a coin of all its details, I guess.

Nice find! A few select quotes from above: Quote:
Striking Details dispite the age.original coin without problems.HARD TO FIND...GREAT EYE APPEAL!!...The scan doesn't begin to do it justice but is all I have (sorry)...This coin look 100 times better in real. Typos are theirs. I've seen home listings written just like this. At some time in that coin's 132 yr. history it was XF.  |

Sigh....no one here seems to appreciate how valuable a weak strike is....or how hard it is for ebay dealers to find such rarities to list these days.... Then again, maybe XF means "extra fair". "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime." Fred Astaire

And you know he probably cheated them out of a good deal in order to make a huge profit off a horribly graded coin. Where is the full LIBERTY at? And it looks as though there are scratches on the obverse.

Must have been cracked out of an SGS slab. Oh wait! NOT an MS70.  |
