But I do like this. "Repaired" and "Whizzed" are two words I usually run away from, and fast.

I'm not sure about in hand, but from the pictures this looks like a really lovely 1799 dollar! Why.... WHY would someone whiz a coin like that!?

Wow, that's one good looking coin. The reason it was whizzed was so that someone could take advantage of someone by making the coin look new. It must of been done a long time ago, though.

Oh, and I just noticed... at least they put "details" in the title. But under the new rules aren't the also supposed to included Whizzed and Repaired?

No, I don't think so. If it were mandatory they'd have to give more characters to fully describe an item.

It looks like a great coin. At least it is identified by the TPG as whizzed. Heck, I have bought coins that looked to have been given a rub down in the past. I'm o.k. with it as long as I know what I am getting.

On this coin, who cares. I'd own it in a heartbeat.
