Took a look on the NGC app and there are photos that don't seem to match the pictures on the listing. The listing photos show some bumps around the date that look more significant than on NGC. Also NGC shows a black spot on one star around 11:00 but it does not appear on the listing. A reputable seller IMO. Any thoughts on this coin being ok? The two just don't seem to match. https://www.ebay.com/itm/126113466680 Report this Post to the Staff

numismatic student Bedrock of the Community United States 11880 Posts	Posted 10/06/2023 11:05 pm I think the coins are the same and the differences are a function of the lighting. Found several marks that match unequivocally. IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. 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."

NumismaticsFTW Pillar of the Community United States 2280 Posts	Posted 10/09/2023 02:20 am Make sure you're prepared when purchasing coins. Not being able to discern these are the same coins is a red flag.
