Which would explain why the seller is using a stock image lifted probably from some marketers site.

The right picture is probably from the campaign of Monnaie de Paris
Up till now I have seen nobody who could photograph the warp
I ordered 4 more full spectrum lights and I am going to try and photograph the warp on my coin

The left picture with the damaged capsule is probably his own

While we're barshing eBay, I wonder why when I go onto the Belgian eBay site, looking for a specific item, it would not let me bid at all?  I had to pull up the item number on the USA site to be able to bid on it.  The seller had no problem selling to a 'Merican, but the dumb site hated my bid until I went in through the back door via the USA site, where the item was not even in the index pages.

I have a log on id I use on Germany and Austria and Italy and Spain and the UK the Netherlands and France etc
My wife uses a differend logon id for Belgium
We are both registered on ebay Belgium

I do not know why but if I want to buy something she saw with her log in id I have to put the item number in search and half the time it does not find the item
So I have to try and log on into ebay Belgium confusing the hell out of my computer who only recognizes her logon into ebay Belgium and once I have logged in
she cannot login anymore cause now the computer only recognizes my id in Belgium

So yes ; my american coindealing friend told me the only way to buy is to put the item number in the American ebay
Another pain is that if I am logged into my ebay germany which I always do that if I want to add an item to my ebay from France or Belgium i have to open again my ebay for that country . So on a busy day I could be logged into 5 different My ebays to add items

On ebay bashing . An ebay manager in Germany was reported not to trust Paypal and refuse its use unless identity was proven . What a joke. This was allover the German net  Roll Eyes

You would think they could at least package that coin better.

I was thinking the same
If they want to go to square coins of the same weight buying an injection mould for square capsules would cost like 5000 Euro which would add less then a euro per coin over the production life.
Now you got a square peg in a round hole  Grin

Well, they are French after all, and they do the first part of it nice(the coin) then f*** up the packaging.   Just like a lot of things. Grin

Yes and they will never learn
After their painfull slip up with the last goldfranc by Starck which got delivered damaged they should know better about capsules
At least they put a stop in this capsule so the coin cannot rotate and only bang up and down
I should call it a goldbar with denomination though since a coin is made to roll (spend) we say in Flemish

They issued the coin, not the paint crap on it.

Now one carat blue diamond VVS1 that is something else

I don't really care for diamonds.  I do like emeralds though, so my wife will get a new one soon.  I owe her, for letting me purchase all the effluent I have bought.
