Considering getting this...messaged the seller he is an older gentleman who bought a lot of these years ago from a dealer in his area. Price is reasonable, and has a 30 day return policy (So I can take it to my expert of 30+ years for his analysis. Everything look ok; or just another Chinese knockoff. Report this Post to the Staff

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 06/13/2016 11:57 pm It doesn't look EF to me but might go VF35. That's not a great price on a raw VF+ even if it is real since it really authentication to confirm it's a $500 coin (as a certified VF35). ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 06/14/2016 12:06 am Legit but cleaned VF+ details, not EF. But that being said, buy raw Trade dollars at your own risk. 30 day return policy + 3k feedback is a good omen, though.

billjones Pillar of the Community United States 1499 Posts	Posted 06/14/2016 09:07 am It looks to be genuine, but the white balance in the picture is way off. The blue tint is not the proper view unless you are looking at this coin with sunglasses. It might just be bad picture processing, or maybe they are covering up a problem. The grade is also "optimistic." It's not an EF, but has nice Choice VF sharpness. Report this Post to the Staff
Imthealphaomega Pillar of the Community United States 3210 Posts	Posted 06/14/2016 10:42 am I will continue to message him and see if he can provide me better pictures. Perhaps I can use this to my advantage to get a better deal. Like I said if I do buy it I have a 30 day return guarantee; so if my main dealer doesn't like it I will promptly return it. Or I may just go for one of his other cheaper Trade dollars to fill the whole in my type set dansco. Report this Post to the Staff
