mrbadexample Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 I can't get my head round people spending £300+ based on picture of just one side. Quote

It's not too much over melt and the reverse shows it to be an 1899P which invariably sells at a premium. Even if the obverse is a mess you can only lose 10 or 20 quid at the most. I don't think the vendor had much idea of what he was selling, o/w he would have put up a wrong image of an 1899 P. Quote

There was a coin at a Spink auction a few weeks ago that only showed one side of a coin. I think that it was an 1826 proof penny, so not a cheap coin. Just seemed a bit strange to me. Quote

Be foolish to buy such a coin, as you never know what horrors lurk unseen on the other side. Quote
Sword Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 I assume they would have supplied a photo if asked? London Coins was prompt to email photos when I asked them. Likewise, I have got additional photos from Lockdales before. Quote
Iannich48 Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 Well, they should have put the photo on their website in the first place tbh. But yes, they would have supplied if asked I guess. 1 Quote
Sword Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 Obviously they should have, and I wouldn't be very happy if I am the seller. 1 Quote

However, extremely frustrating to watch it pass nonchalantly across the screen, leaving one helpless to do anything much about it! A bit like being on planet watch, only to watch helplessly as we screw that up too 🙁 Quote
