Not even a good fake...and including some shill bidding for good measure. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1916-25C-St...850563?hash=item2a5ed82743:g:fcEAAOSwJkJWiM-F
Is this thing made of silver? I have no idea what it's made of. Some kind of base metal, but probably not silver.
Buyers who've never seen one before and are too lazy to do the research before purchase will always be funding Fleabay/Vlad's boys....
You can get it for much less at http://www.aliexpress.com/item/HOT-...4-Genulne-Coin-FREE-SHIPPING/32421407238.html I think the moron did not even take his own photo, using the one from Ali.
I like to think someone set up a disposable account and has no intentions of paying. Wish I had a dollar for every time I posted "What P.T. Barnum said"
How is Ali allowed to sell this crap? It's blatant! Isn't PCGS out there with a bit of legal backing to stop this kind of thing? I see basement slabbers attempting, but selling it out in the open?
It seems to be see no evil, hear no evil and speak no evil when it comes to this type of stuff. My paranoid side makes me wonder who is profiting off it.
Notified PCGS, Ebay and Squawk on the Street for propagating Alibaba in our country as an open source for counterfeit and fraud. Unbelievable.
