    masterswimmer A Caretaker, can't take it with me

    From the listing:

    "(NOTE: D on back of coin is faded but if you look Closely you can see that it’s there)"

    The 'D' isn't even visible in pareidolia world.

    If you look closely at my ultra low resolution pic you will be able to see the capability of my iphone 3gs.

    Wow, I was expecting a AG coin where wishful thinking lent you to believe there was a D. This is just fraud. Hopefully someone gets it taken down.

    I am the least digitally capable person you will ever meet. Even I can take a clear cell phone photo of a coin. There is a reason that reverse photo is as fuzzy as it is. I sent a nice message asking him for either a much clearer photo showing the mintmark or revise his listing. We will see what he says.

    You're a lot nicer than me. I reported it. I've also lost any sympathy for people who bid on something like that.

    I can't believe how many people are willing to spend so much money on raw coins that don't even look right. It's really amazing.

    I wasn't originally going to report him. But now I am.
