I'm tired of this garbage and it's MAKING ME SICK!

Hello everyone,

I am so furious!

I just noticed for the first time that even Facebook Marketplace have listings of supposedly "mint errors"

It's sickening and tiring!

Look at this ludicrous listing claiming to be a IN COD WE TRUST..

Since real error (or variety) coins are not plentiful but have gotten a fair amount of press, many people are aware of them and want one. This leads to both some stupidity and some deliberate lying/fakery. I posted this (https://www.cointalk.com/threads/craigslist.418170/#post-26255470) that I found on Craigslist. I told the seller what the consensus was and urged him to take it to a dealer. I just re-contacted him and he claims he sold it for $500!

 

Double? How about triple? Maybe my Kennedy would bring MOON money

 

I’m glad to be a CT member and made aware of these things. Also glad that I know a little about true mint errors from common simple errors that happen all the time.

 

It's never going to end. Same with the counterfeits. I gave up.

 

Now if it said "In Codpiece We Trust" that would be some error.

 

looks like something up around the nose too.

 

Here is one I just saw on ebay



Those prices are so ridiculous!
I have a attributed nickel struck on Cent Planchet that Is valued at $300.00
A true mint error. These people are crooks and scammers.

 

I don't know what it is, although I have a hunch. There have always been scammers but lately it's an epidemic. You have to assume every phone call or coin listing or etc is a scam until proven otherwise.
