Gyrene7483 Pillar of the Community United States 1704 Posts	Posted 09/01/2011 11:52 pm HA! The guy wanted double melt for a coin which is barely identifiable and with no buyers dropped it a whole two dollars, I guess I had better buy it now before someone else buys this "bargain."!

Whytlash Valued Member United States 407 Posts	Posted 09/02/2011 12:13 am Cool...uh....planchet? Kinda like a ghost coin. Sure is pretty though. Pretty shiny! If you know anything about marketing you know that it's not a defect, it's a feature! Sell it strong. New grade level: AP-01 Steve Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 09/02/2011 12:19 am Some like these low ball registry sets for whatever reason. I think PCGS now lets you include problem coins now as part of your set now. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
Namachieli Pillar of the Community United States 2120 Posts	Posted 09/02/2011 12:56 am The thing though, it has to be identifiable to a year and MM to be useful to a low ball set. thats why a PO1 With a Date and MM is so hard to get. At that point the coin is near slick. Report this Post to the Staff

gilpo New Member United States 48 Posts	Posted 09/02/2011 10:08 am Hey, at least you know what you are getting. However, could it be a counterfeit? The first test piece off a counterfeiter's new press? LOL Report this Post to the Staff
mycrob Pillar of the Community United States 2602 Posts	Posted 09/02/2011 10:49 am I wonder if this coin would pass the weight test, with it being so worn? Should be selling this for melt- price is silly. Not sure I'd even buy it at melt! Report this Post to the Staff

bjones Valued Member United States 304 Posts	Posted 09/02/2011 4:23 pm This is not the worst coin. Unless it's not even real silver. If this coin is 90% silver then I argue it's not the worst coin. Mistreated, sure, but it would still have a conversational place in some/most collections, since it holds value (melt) still. Report this Post to the Staff
jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 2208 Posts	Posted 09/02/2011 5:17 pm Very funny==especially since some people would be tempted to call this an extremely rare mint error and ask for scads of bread for it. Report this Post to the Staff
littleboy Pillar of the Community United States 764 Posts	Posted 09/03/2011 12:50 am it looks artificially worn and harshly cleaned. Report this Post to the Staff
