Would you really prefer a larger picture of this one as the seller offers,
or would you rather just hold onto your fifty bucks?

Oh sure, a larger pic will definitely make the detail come through ;-)

I have seen coins that were probably worth $10K listed with very similarly
diminutively sized images. It seems to me if you are going to list
something beyond about $10 you can afford to pay $4.95 a month for a webhost
for larger images.

He could have manipulated the photo a bit but it wouldn't have helped
much.(a.b.p.n.)

I have tried 'manipulating' it.

It is close to being a blank disc!

You can just about see that there is a figure on the obverse,
and read ONE CENT on the reverse.

Does it even make a Grade of 1? Almost -5!!

I don't think a larger image view would have helped this one. I just
thought it ironic that the seller would offer to provide one.
