aladinslamp Pillar of the Community United States 3076 Posts	Posted 08/02/2011 11:16 pm The problem with scanned coins is the color is always off,,,,while the coin appears to have some MS detail its uncertain to see AU from "MS"?the color is off so you really can't tell but assume.....its cleaned rather than to think (financially) that its not cleaned so bid low hand hope HIGH! Many a good coin has had poor photo's that are real deals from small time sellers and obvious poor photo's from big time dealers who know the coin has problems hoping someone will pay more for just to spin the wheel ...
