okie-colin Pillar of the Community United States 1083 Posts	Posted 01/17/2007 11:19 pm Just won this coin on ebay for about $80 with shipping. It is raw, but looks like a relatively undamaged F-12 to me. If so it was a bargain and completes my last needed copper coin for my 7070. What do you guys think? I can always return it.

texasmick Pillar of the Community United States 751 Posts	Posted 01/18/2007 7:06 pm Congrats! It's a type I need myself. One question: why is the reverse pic so much smaller than the obverse? I hope it isn't designed to hide something. Report this Post to the Staff

I don't think so, I just think he snagged them from the listing and forgot to click the small one first to make it bigger. Shop CCF Members on eBay. Report this Post to the Staff
okie-colin Pillar of the Community United States 1083 Posts	Posted 01/18/2007 7:26 pm You are right Bobby. I just got the small picture, sorry. Thanks for the congrats and the dancing banana. I was kind of excited and I bragged a bit too much I think. I have been watching these draped bust LC on ebay for months and the price for the undamaged ones always goes through the roof at the last minute. The slabbed ones offered on Heritage all are corroded or damaged it seems. This seemed like a good buy. Some risk as the guy doesn't take Paypal and I've got to send him a money order, but his ratings are positive. Maybe that held the bidding down. The reverse is like the obverse, worn but not overly porous. I ordered my 7070 today. I need to see all those old coppers together. Probably niave, but the older coins are the ones I like. George Washington might have had them in his pocket! Colin Report this Post to the Staff
