    That's an awful lot of money to spend on something that's uncertified....especially on a platform like e-fake. I'm no expert, but no way in hell would I part with that kind of money on that platform.

    I will have to look at it in the morning after a couple cups of Coffee.
    I will say that nothing really stands out. I think it would go a little higher than 30. Looks like a rim ding under the date.

    I agree with VF-30. Glad I wasn't bidding I would have stopped at $92.17 even though the '93-S is a very valuable Morgan.

    Sure looks like an added mintmark. The mintmark is definitely too close to the ribbon.

    I can't prove it, but my gut says this is probably a scam

    If I had a genuine 1893-S that I was going to sell, I would go to the expense of having it certified and sell it on something like Great Collections. If I had a pretty good fake that I was trying to sell (and I knew it likely to be fake and I were dishonest), I might sell it raw on ebay, even though the final bid would be somewhat lower than the real one on Great Collections or Heritage. Not saying that is what this seller has done, just what I would do.
