Aside from the fact that it's not near gem BU, does anyone see anything wrong with the photos in this listing? I think I would have cropped them more.

Well that's a novel presentation! All I see is a faint/missing period in VDB.

Is there a discount if any leg hair come with the coin?

I don't usually wear gloves to handle coins, but I might make an exception here.
Rest in Peace

I would think someone would clean and trim their nails if they include them in coin photos....

It is stated though that it is NEAR uncirc. Now just how far away from anything is NEAR?

Yes needed to be cropped , do not photograph holding raw coins with hands and fingers especially between dumb and forefinger . The best pics of a listed coin is large blown up straight shots of obverse and reverse .
Rest in Peace

At least it's in focus on a couple shots.

Which is less shots than he has had

The most surprising thing about this coin/ad is the fact there are three bids! No where "near Gem BU." I wonder he/she picked up that term? All I see besides leg hair is a few choice fingerprints plastered on it. Its sales like this that gives ebay coin sales a bad name. I feel bad for the buyer. The seller probably doesn't have a clue what Gem BU even means.
