I think sometimes we get spoiled with quick delivery by some sellers, often receiving a purchase in just a few days. So when someone lags a...
Not sure where you're located, but posting at 3:00 A.M. eastern time (U.S.) is not going to generate alot of responses! Be patient, someone will...
I can't figure out how this low grade example of a '34-S Walker ever graded VF20 (was included in a lot of VG halves I won on eBay about a year...
One person caught.... many more still out there. I think we are only seeing the tip of the iceberg as thousands of phony coins and slabs are...
Well, at five bucks a pop, it's obvious the dealer knew the coins weren't genuine. Probably just a tiny portion of the 10K+ unmarked forgeries...
That's a keeper, all right. Chop marks (Chinese lawnmower?) to the extreme!
Well, the thought never crossed my mind. I have hundreds of old photos I took that I sell on eBay.. and most go for $10 to $75 each. I hope he...
I looked at the bid history, and it was another buyer with 100% feedback bidding the photo up. I can't even imagine why, unless bidders get so...

A day late and a dollar short... oops, make that 350 dollars short...
For $13, I'd buy as many of those Walkers as I could!
Besides coins, I collect comicbooks (mostly from the 40's and 50's). Some years back, a 10 point grading system was incorporated by the two major...
"...subject to seizure without warrant..." Now I have this image of ATF stormtroopers battering down my front door in the middle of the night,...
Don't be surprised about replicas not being marked. The only way you get "COPY" stamped on a coin from our Chinese friends is to request it. The...
The secret service has very little interest (if any) in numismatic forgery... now if you were going to put together a collection of current...
I guess time really flies when you're having fun... and finding a seven year old thread certainly must take some time!
So I bought some Chinese replicas off ebay.... I found this post on "So I bought some Chinese replicas off ebay...." interesting and have...
Well, that's wishful thinking... on the priority scale for Homeland Security, numismatic forgery doesn't even exist. In fact (unlike...
