eBay does a pretty good job of weeding out "hit and run" sellers... but the problem remains that a high percentage of buyers don't realize they...
Yep, Irish five pence. That and three bucks will get me a Guinness at the local pub. Of course, without the five pence, it's still three bucks.
I truly believe Detecto doesn't realize he's doing this. Our boy just loves to talk coins, even though in most cases it's frivolous and repetitive.
Or, as in most instances, the buyer is oblivious to the problem. I read once (I believe it was on the CFe boards) that approximately 90% of buyers...
Like I said, someone is going to be very disappointed when they find out this is an altered 58-O. Paying over $300 for a $25 coin is pure...
It's an altered '58-O. Someone's going to be very disappointed, lol.
For anyone interested, here's a link to his IHC auctions. I don't know enough to make a definitive call about authenticity, but personally, I...

I dislike graded ASE's immensely. To me, it's just a marketing ploy that prays on the gullibility of the uninformed (which, apparently, are...
It's not a "store". This site is full of Chinese manufacturers that specialize in fakes... not just coins, but everything else you can imagine....
Well, if you want to buy a set of sixty-five Lincoln cents (includes the '57 & '58), it'll set you back $144 (unless you go for 12 sets or more......
You mean "COPY"? The Chinese never mar their replicas with the copy stamp. I believe if you want your fakes properly marked as such, you must pay...
"the symbol"... are you referring to the mintmark?
Not really sure if this is a change of tactics... Chinese counterfeiters have been replicating just about every Lincoln cent for a number of...
Getting back to the OP's question of selling his fake trade dollar... if he stamps "COPY" on the coin, it can legally be sold on Amazon or a...
