<p>[QUOTE="Moen1305, post: 160716, member: 2544"]I wrote him an email to ask him if he was unaware of what he was selling or whether he was just another ebay crook. I pointed out the other sale and that it was correctly labelled as a magicians coin. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and believe he thinks what he has is genuine. He wrote me back this reply,</p><p><br /></p><p><span style="color: Blue"><font face="Comic Sans MS"> "Sir, I did in fact look at that gentlemens coin. It looks very close to the one that I have listed. One exception: My coin on the side has for lack of a better term: ridges/grooves that normally appear on a dime/quarter/half dollar. Now, im honest and I do not appreciate being called a crook. Not by you nor anyone else. Before your so quick to judge my integrity I wonder what your expert credentials are and If they can be confirmed bu an independent 3rd party?.

I can no be more honest than that, my description, and my pictures. Plus my overall reputation speaks for itself. Kindly do not email me again as you have been blocked. I have been more "kind and explanative" that you deserve.
