This is a coin that I bid on last night and wasn't able to purchase. It sold for $557. Wondering what you thought of its grade and whether you see any problems. I thought I bid high enough to snag it but the price was bid up about $200 in the last 10 seconds. Seller seems to have lots of high grade auctions of unslabbed coins. Thanks!

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Looks like a very high grade AU 58 with only a whisper of circulation.

That particular seller is known for advanced photographic techniques, to put it kindly.

I had only ever returned one coin in all my ebay buying over many years, yet I was forced to return 3 coins in a row from this seller. Since then I've never returned another ebay purchase as ive never bid on this seller again.

touched of circulation with juiced photography. Coin won't look this good in hand. Similar experience with returning coins as moxx. They are on my blocked seller list.
Rest in Peace

What I don't like about GSC is most of their silver coins have the same look to them . A little hard for me to explain but if check him out ,you'll see what I mean .

Thanks. Would have liked to have seen one in hand. Thought it was beautiful. I was in up to $500, which I think would be full retail for AU58.
