yhbearcats Pillar of the Community United States 688 Posts	Posted 12/03/2013 7:11 pm I love the description of the seller left for this coin on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1869-SHIELD...em19e5d677d3 At least he was honest about it. It is a very clean coin. Report this Post to the Staff

ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4415 Posts	Posted 12/03/2013 7:18 pm XF details but ... I'm guessing that the pic may be darkened as the coin was heavily whizzed. Two other nickels he has listed seem to have suffered similarly, yet not as severely. Report this Post to the Staff
Chancellor Sutler Pillar of the Community United States 1372 Posts	Posted 12/03/2013 9:10 pm Not pertaining to this listing ... but to "honesty in advertising". I have come to accept the fact the BU stands both for "brilliant uncirculaed" ... and "beat up". Sellers who are totally clueless and inexperienced at dealing in coins ... like to throw around terms that they don't (apparently) know the meaning of. These same guys will list a G-4Indian head as Red or Red/Brown. Makes it all entertaining, though. Chance Report this Post to the Staff
rking007 Pillar of the Community United States 784 Posts	Posted 12/04/2013 02:31 am I've actually started to notice quite a few listings from sellers putting the word 'details' to mean that the coin is actually detailed. Like, XF details meaning, 'It has the details of an XF coin'. I actually like these listings because if the picture shows a problem free XF coin, for example, I usually get it for dirt cheap.
