    I was checking out this Lesher Dollar and I thought something doesn't look right on it so I began looking around and I remembered the ANA had issued some Lesher Dollars in 1985 to restore the Lesher House that was donated to them. I don't know if any of you have noticed it or not but when you look up sold items on feebay today they don't show you much at all, they used to show plenty but not anymore. :rolleyes: Could be they want you to use Worthpoint, idk. Anyone know how many sites ebay owns? They have gobbled up and created all kinds of different sites! :D Wonder if they own Worthpoint? It's their right to do if they want as we all know they don't make as much money as they used to! :cigar:

    Are you clicking on the "Show Original Listing" link once the listing comes up? If you do that, you'll see the full description with all the images.

    Yes I know that, I'm not sure why you're telling me that at all, I always do that. I'm not new to ebay at all. Sold for $206.50, that's amazing! :D

    You said "when you look up sold items on feebay today they don't show you much at all", and I wasn't sure what you meant. When they made the change to just show summary info instead of full info on sold items, it took me a while to notice the "show original listing" link, and I figured you might be in the same situation.

    What is it that they used to show, and that you don't see any more?

    My bad, I didn't write that up very well. I didn't try to look up sold items on the Lesher Dollars at all. When I used to look up sold items they would show items that had sold, it seemed like they showed quite a few. Now it's a bit sketchy sometimes it shows all the sold items and sometimes I'm lucky if they show 1 or 2 items. I'll figure out what you're saying, appreciated. The below search worked fine, but sometimes it doesn't bring up much at all.

    Now I don't feel quite so bad about taking a week to return someone's call. ;)

    There are a couple different ones out there.

    The first (ANA) from 1985, the second (Victor - City of Mines) from 1993.

    I think eBay only goes back a few months anymore.
    There was another place to search other than worth point but I can't remember what it was now.
