The color, which could be the lghting, and the gunk left in the devices. Please do not get me wrong this is a nice example of a tougher variety! For $23 you got a great deal...imho

I thought the price was reasonable. The color seemed like photo editing problems. I could not really see the doubling deal with the 3 though.

Recuts are fairly common in this series. Yours shows clearly.

I would have bought that coin - the holder is my favorite type, the repuch is cool and obvious and the gunk might come off with some acetone, either way, it's a good thing I didn't see it or might have bid on it too! Nice pick up.
