Yeah... but isn't that because you can't specify a true grade in your title for raw coins?
Jinghuashei has been NARU'd before. I have a feeling he'll be back... eBay has a tendency to turn their head and look the other way when it comes...
I think Hobo already made that clear. Regardless, the coin is fake.
Looks strikingly similar to the one our Chinese friend "Robert" is selling.. oh... and don't worry... the "replica" stamp won't be there:...
Looks like photo #1 is an edge shot showing solder damage. I agree with hobo, and only worth melt.
