I was a bidder on this coin, but I didn't like the mark under the chin in the fields and was not crazy about the colour... I dropped out at the $24 mark, I don't like to push coins I don't see in hand to more than 50% of trend (including the buyers fee, taxes, shipping, etc...)... I figured this coin was MS-60 Brown grade.
Please take some photos when you have the coin in hand, maybe you got lucky with an MS-62 grade.
icollector has a pretty big following in North America, all of the Canadian auction companies use it. That would be like asking not to post an ebay link...
The auction ended two nights ago. Perhaps next time, you would prefer that I post the link of the auction prior to the hammer coming down?
You did not say I-collector did you? Where I get my coins from is not for you to broadcast anymore that is it my business to take it upon myself to tell others where you get yours from. Just manners that's all, stick to the comedy.
FYI, the web link I posted is from icollector. It is not rocket science to figure that out. Coins that sell on those sites, that I am a bidder on, is my business.
Solution, don't broadcast your purchases from major auction websites within 24 hours of the hammer... If discretion is your thing, then wait until you have the coin in hand and post your own photos, rather than use the auctioneers...
Marbury, I actually really like that coin and the toning- I have a feeling the luster on that coin is even better in hand- I thing you can certainly pull a 63 BN possibly higher depending on that mark beneath the chin- it looks to me like that could actually be from the 2x2
Personally I would not have paid more than $5 for that coin. Everybody's talking about 'toning' ? Give me a break! The area in the lower-right quadrant of the obverse has corrosion, and the lighter shade of copper has appeared because someone has tried to clean / rub the corrosion away. That is a damaged coin and sending it to a reputable third-party grader should get those 'value-killing' comments on their certification.
