Coinery Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 What are you suspicious about in particular, the coin, the seller, his stock? Quote

It's a scarcer than normal variety (3B) that looks to be about EF with the reverse better. The toning looks like it might be fairly dark, which might put some off, but other than that seems ok.
