Default Pictures are important

Wouldn't you think the seller could provide a better picture?

It certainly would save interested people some time. After all, he did
pay for a month-long auction if the BIN price isn't met.

This is one of the first auctions I've come across with the "best
offer" option. I wouldn't insult the seller with my best offer given
those pictures.

We could always write and ask for some better pictures, then wait. I'm
too lazy. I expect the seller to do a little more work upfront. Makes
me wonder if he would save work later by sticking a key coin in an
unpadded envelope without even an invoice to protect it. I can't even
see the mint mark, much less if it is legitimate.

Well, it also appears to have been dipped..a lot. There is no variation in
the luster, or lack of luster. The entire coin appears washed out. Of course
it could be just the scan that makes it look that way. Just MHO

I think it's a little strange that his shipping method is First Class.
I think a coin with that value should not only be very well packaged
but be sent Certified mail.
