Can't tell from the bad pics. They may be AU coins polished to resemble Unc. coins. I personally would not buy from that seller.

Good question. When you buy raw, though, you're always going to wonder.

This seller scans instead of photographing, meaning no conclusion about surface originality is possible. Scans do not provide sufficient evidence, and cannot accurately depict surface preservation.

Generally, when a seller uses the term "MS++++" in their listings, I turn and walk away.

Looks like most of his silver dollars have been cleaned.

I glanced through his listings and unfortunately, all that I looked at appeared cleaned.

The writing on the 2x2's, especially the superlatives he uses, would scare me off from buying from him.

Buyer beware!

The surfaces look flat. No luster and as many suggested, cleaned.

I would not buy this, or these type of coins.

I'm not to crazy about overly emphasized "++++++" signs on many of the seller's coins.

Sells polished coins. I only bought one from him early on my learning curve, and even then I could tell the surfaces were altered. I returned it!

561 lots. Not even one TPG. Buy stuff, polish it, stick in a 2x2 and write how outstanding every coin is.

It's sad this nails so many buyers.
