I hope you don't bid on this one, now that one bad fake http://www.ebay.com/itm/1955-double-die-penny-/152082245125?hash=item2368cee605:g:8igAAOSwKfVXLcJn
LOL, yes I think so. either Abes been smoking something, or he turned Chinese. check out those eyes...
Just FYI to everybody here, I sent the seller a PM on eBay pointing out that it was fake. Based on a note in one of their other auctions, it looks like they inherited a few random coins from their grandmother's estate, so I think the listing was in good faith. I also wouldn't be surprised if someone else already messaged them, and that's why they ended the auction early.
That beats the heck out of sitting around mocking it from the keyboard. They aren't all deliberate frauds posted by criminals.
My god... I nearly fell out of my chair. You mean to tell me that people can and do make mistakes and that not everyone is out to rip the poor innocent collector? That's Cointalk heresy, you know...
