Hi Ray!
After spending about 15 minutes looking at the pictures, I would see that I would
be very suspicious. It appears, to me, that these are the same coin. Judging by
the striation, etc., I am actually fairly confident that it is the same coin. I
bought a coin from this person once. It was as described, no problem, but
communication was a poor. Otherwise, I was happy with the
transaction......however, now that you bring this up, I think perhaps I will be
less likely to buy from him. I guess everyone has to make their own decision, but
I will certainly think twice. I'm sorry to hear that this happened to you.....of
course, this may be a cheap way for many of us to learn who's doing what to with
whom (if one were inclined to think in that direction).
My own experience has been that I have seen coins that I knew belonged (or used
to belong) to dealer A, but then was up on ebay and being sold by ebay seller B.
I suspect we should all be more aware of bidding history. This will give us a
better idea of false support, or, perhaps, who is "tapping" us for what ever
demented reason.
On a positive note, I am hopeful that you lost this coin opportunity because you
are about to find a better one!
Best Regards,
Bijan
