t360 Pillar of the Community United States 2703 Posts	Posted 09/02/2007 5:02 pm Not someone I would buy from. Too many red flags for me. I tend to avoid people who know very little or worse yet pretend to know very little about what they are selling. Let's count the red flags. (1)Listing the coin as "silver nickel". (2)Citing the opinion of an unnamed "world renound (sic) expert". (3)Confusing Very fine with AU grades. (4)Confusing the condition of the coin with age of the coin - "Condition is excellent for a 122 year old coin." (5)Blurry pictures. (6)Rather low feedback. (7)Selling this expensive and rare coin for "a friend". Seven red flags. $1380 at stake. I begin wonder, and even to suspect stolen goods. Maybe I've gotten risk adverse, but I would never consider bidding. Report this Post to the Staff

Gary Burke Rest in Peace United States 3730 Posts	Posted 09/03/2007 01:08 am Wish I had a Grand plus for a single coin. If I did, I would probably buy the 1909S VDB Lincoln or the 1916 D Mercury dime. Well, there's always the lottery. Maybe I should start buying tickets again. Report this Post to the Staff
