Arrrggggg....some times I take a chance on an ebay coin. Well, fuzzy, crappy pics sometimes show a better coin in hand....not this time. LOL Seller described as "full wheat lines" so I figured OK, I'll roll the dice on an EF coin for $3.24 shipped. This is what I got: Note: The cheek and jaw are complete merged, totally flat.

A long way from EF but still a nice example of an F15.

If you were looking for a 20-S in EF you should have let me know (that goes for anybody). I got multiples of just about everything. I have been trying to motivate myself to get my collection together and sell off some. I have taken that chance too on ebay, lost a few but won some. Picked up a couple of proofs for my set last week that had bad pics (scans) should know soon if I did good or not. |

Really shows you that some folks selling coins on ebay have never heard of grading or just don't know how to grade . I've done the same thing BadThad so don't feel bad! At $3.24 out the door, whats the point of returning. Having said that: F12 swcoin.ecrater.com

Chris - I'm not looking, just rolling the dice with $3. LOL
It's not a bad coin really.

I also use ebay for after hours trading sometimes to get my fix. |

I guess we've all been there with ebay before. Like you said, Thad, it's just $3 that you gambled and you ended up getting what looks to be a fair deal instead of an awesome deal. Now if it had bee three HUNDRED dollars in question...that would be a different story! |

Your coin is F15 with some corrosion on the obverse. Far from EF45.
