Years ago, i have asked them for pictures of actual coin selling. They declined to do so, and said if you think the quality is not up to standard, you can return in 7 or 14 days which i can't remember the exact days. I think they are having below par sales standard for such a big organization.

Everyday use of a pre decimal penny

"With no precise record of the number minted, and with the coin having been struck to ordinary circulation standard, it is entirely possible that one might turn up in everyday use." One wonders what the "everyday use" of a predecimal penny might be, let alone one dated 1933..

The only way to treat them at the moment is expect them to do the opposite of what they say they will do
