That's nice...but why does the lighting/reflection on the slab look very different than the coin?  Maybe it's legit, but it looks to be two separate photos. |

That coin would look good in a cheap cellphone pic.  This one is as good as it gets. It was lit to bring out the best in the coin, and to heck with what the slab looks like. |

Ok, I'll buy that explanation...it's not like I have a box of proof cameo eagles laying around |

The coin is beautiful, but why would someone list it on ebay and not with one of the major auction houses? |

Don't the major auction houses charge big premiums?

Correct me if I'm wrong, I recall reading a post which indicated Heritage charges its buyers premium plus 10% or so of the winning bid.

And I believe that Heritage changes on both ends--buyer and seller, correct? |
