In the words of the giant bug in "MEN IN BLACK," 'I accept your challenge!' elapsed time, 10sec. from going to the trade dollar listings on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/1875-TRADE-Silv...c0.m14&_trkparms=65:10|66:2|39:1|293:1|294:50
somebody paid $1,599 for that questionable coin you told us about!! I hope you are wrong for the bidders sake.
It was this coin listed on the first page of this thread. It was a questionable counterfeit .What is your opinion? (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-5...5%3A10%7C66%3A2%7C39%3A1%7C293%3A5%7C294%3A50)
I bid on a 1914-D cent last year on ebay. After I bid, another bidder sent me a message indicating his believe that it was a fake. It was. I informed the bidder that it appeared to be a fake and if he had checked by coin dealer. He sent back a note that a good friend who was a coin collector had told him that it was genuine. Funny thing than happened. A bidder with 0 transcactions began to bid on the coin until the bid exceeded my bid. I immediately reported this situation to ebay. The guy who sent me the original note also reported him to ebay. Over the next day, the coin continued to raise in price by several bidders, who were no longer joined by the 0 transaction bidder. The coin finally sold for over $300 but then the sale was nulled by ebay.
