First Crusty Coin Attempt

If it was a coin there isn't much left of it now. I can't tell from the photo. What type of metal is it?

The way the light reflects off the coin sorta tells me that it is a metal instead of crud. I would assume, without seeing it of course, that it is a slug. Most likely a coin though, but I doubt it will be identified.

Honestly, it seems like a glassy surface. It's very peculiar, especially after the excitement of getting the dirty off then there's nothing. lol

If they accept returns, I'd just hit them up and let them know its on its way back to them due to it not being an accurate description. Get a tracking number.

If not, then I would try to show the pictures to them (if possibly they left an email) and BE SURE to contact them first. Once you leave feedback, they are going to be MUCH less friendly and more unlikely to work with you; Due to the constraints of changing feedback once it has been placed. Also, leaving them a message and letting them know you are returning them or ask if you can return them due to lack of quality and a false description you will have evidence that ebay might need in order to make a decision in your favor. This would come in handy if they said 'no' and you started an investigation through ebay Member Services. It sounds like a lot, but its fairly common in this business.

So have y'all returned uncleaned coins that you've started to clean already?

Not the best coins..... I wouldn't leave negative, as mentioned before I would get in touch and tell the seller your concerns. I am out of the country for the next 2 or 3 weeks, but when I get back I will message you, I can send you some small late romans to have a practice on and they will all have detail. free of charge, just cover the postage.

And MetDet71, I'd love some practice coins. Definitely let me know when you have the chance.
