    With all the complaints about "eBay sellers that need to be shut down", it's good to see some that aren't exaggerating or misrepresenting in their titles:

    Coin

    Of course, I can't really confirm the listing's accuracy from the photo... :rolleyes:

    The year on this coin (if its a coin) looks like 1894 (if its a year), when looking at it after moving 2 meters from the screen. Good enough for me to bid!

    I saw that, to, and wondered if "coletion" is some kind of medical procedure?

    Looks at the bottom of the pic like it is corroded green at best and holed at worst. I'll pass at $35 after all if the seller doesn't know what it is how am I supposed to from that pic..lol.

    It's worth taking a look at his other auctions, too. He has another "Coin", as well as a "Vase" and an "Antique"...

    At least if he ships in a bubble mailer with Delivery Confirmation the $3.00 shipping is reasonable! :smile

    There's so mch wrong with that listing that it could be used as a textbook case of "how not to create a listing on eBay."

    But the seller does have does have a whopping 4 eBay transactions though.:rolleyes:

    Did you notice the date on his flying eagle? He describes it as an "1857y one cent." Really rare.
