I don't get it. You want us to report it, but then you want us to tell you why it is fake?

 

Just seeing if you notice why its counterfeit......

The bold "N" in ONE on the reverse was not used in 1869.

 

I am sorry, but if you want me to report it you are going to have to tell me why it is counterfeit.

 

ah i was going to say the date wasn't curved enough

 

The reverse is wrong.....there were no bold N reverses in 1869

 

I can't tell a blasted thing from the sellers pics........



???????

 

The pics are bad.....heres the best I can do to point out the area of suspicion.

 

Well, the ones I see on Heritage are and my copy of teh Professional Red Book says the weak N's were from the 1870's.

 

If you want to report it to a live person, this is the link:
http://contact.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAP...+Listing+Policies+for+Sellers+>+Selling+Coins
It works much better than the automated system that you get if you click the 'Report' link in the auction.

 

Link does not work for the general public. It includes id and password.

Here is an article written by Rick Snow explaining the shallow N.

 

Where are you looking at the ones on heritage. I see no Bold N examples on their site.

 

You cannot report anything, through any link, if you are not signed in...

 

It require YOUR password in the link. And I absolutely am signed into eBay and reporting counterfeits.

Gotcha.
It must have incorporated my info into the link since I was signed in when I copy/pasted.
I have shared this link before, and it worked. It was probably because I had copy/pasted when I was not signed in, so it didn't associate the link with my ID. That's all I can figure. I'll sign out and recopy the link.

Rather late to report it as the listing ended and the coin sold for $275.

 

I think the photo is pretty poor to make a call about the N. Both the lighting and focus are bad enough that you may just see bold when it really isn't.

Just curious was this auction reported or not?

 

I am sure someone reported it, but I did not. Every picture I found on Heritage (save one) showed a not weak "N". It looked like a hollow (for the lack of a better term) "N" in varying degrees for the other 10 or so I looked at.
