in this image I uploaded I now can see the digritis on the coin chin and cheek.
the bid is pressing on 30 bucks with more than an hour to go.

pictures are usually like this. Maybe trying to hide something

Or the seller doesn't know how to take good pics...if there is a return policy,it could be an opportunity for you

This coin went for more than 50 dollars, I just don't get it? bargain hunters just taking a chance knowing that they can return it?
I don't have time for that stuff, oh well I continue looking for the 14-S

Just guessing: the converted picture is probably close (maybe a little darker). Compare the tone of original staples and a white 2x2.

I stay away from anything that looks shady, including pictures. |
