Emerging World Coins (EWC) is an eBay "Online Name" for myself as a Numismatic Hobbyist. I strive and am passionate to present for auction, ultra high grade rarities and unusual coin issues. This is my contribution to the numismatic community to preserve history and to foster new collectors.
I do apologize however, I am not a return center for people who may get "buyers' remorse". Regrettably, I do not have the time nor bandwidth, You are participating in this Auction and when the hammer falls, The Buyer (You), owns this auction item. Like any Auction Buyer (You), are responsible to conduct ALL research and ask all questions prior to the end of the auction. You are encourage to use the eBay ZOOM feature to see the coin (which is what you are buying, not the slab) in clear detail.
Merely stating what should be obvious. This is an Auction and no Adult places a Bid without knowing what they are Bidding on. The auction is for 5 or 7 days and provides the buyer ample time to ask question or research prior to placing a bid.
So please understand the following.
NO RETURNS : By sending payment for this item, The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that they have completed all research required over the duration of this auction and are resolved with their decision to place a bid. The Buyer agrees to forfeit the eBay Buyer Protection policy in favor of The Seller. Also, The Buyer agrees that any returns requested will be immediately closed in the favor of The Seller and will not hold the The Seller to ANY eBay return policy. The Buyer understands and agrees that this is their non-verbal direct instructions to eBay to immediately close all "Requested Returns" in favor of the The Seller.
Please Note, adjectives used to describe the coin are best efforts within a limited font space provided, to best accurately describe the coin. Admittedly I am sometimes creative with word selection and yet is still an accurate depiction of the coin, please send questions if you need more elaboration. Note, the use of the word "GEM" is used to describe a high quality coin (not a grade), and could also refer to the rarity of the coin regardless of the quality.
Also note, The Sheldon Coin Grading system (please Google to see) does not use the adjective "GEM", instead the word "Mint State" is used; of course a coin would actually have to be graded to use this adjective. The term "GEM BU" is used frequently used but "technically" does not officially refer to a grade (Google). I do acknowledge that this may differ in other countries.
A word about Toning, note that the environment causes toning for all coins. This can be from light colors to dark and although beautiful, at times can be excessive damage to become Not-Gradable. Note, A Not-Gradable coin with UNC Details & Environmentally Damaged, is still a UNC coin which has all of the beauty of an UNC coin. The Toning from the environment has damaged the coin beyond the scope of grading possibilities. Also, some coins may have high grade details, and still possibly shown signs of being cleaned at some point in history. Again, the coin is likely Not-Gradable.
If a coin has an actual slab grade, the grade will be listed in the title description. If there is no grade, none will be listed.
As the old saying goes; "Buy the Coin, Not the Slab!" Again, Thank You for your business!
