That's probably true in some cases. The ones I've read where people fessed up they were pushing them more to like Saturn money. All got into 5 figures or close, if someone blindly buys at the level I will just assume that is like a 20 dollar bill to them
Yea that is very reasonable Edit: I realize we may be talking about two different things. I don't mean bidding it up and hoping to snag an actual bidder at ridiculous prices. I mean that even the failed sales are still auction records, and potential future buyers for the same coin are not aware of the circumstances surrounding the coin they are researching. They only see that it sold for X amount and bid accordingly.
But you, like the vast majority of collectors here, have significant experience with coins. The average person (the target group) does not. Edited: Typo
Can anyone tell if this Morgan is legit? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1885-CC-Mor...=item211d84b3eb:g:iFMAAOSwZQRYZvdw&rmvSB=true
No. I didn't see that. But it just goes to show how childish and petty you guys can get right out of the gate.
While I doubt it is true, it would be amusing if Cascade was merely a DCarr alt created to screw with us all.
I'd like to point out that you're hijackig a thread, but seeing how far off the tracks it went already, I'll just point out that @Cascade said he could tell you if it was legit.
That's why printers for quite some time have been required to produce a unique code to the images they produce that can be used very easily tell the government what printer printed them. So if someone printed fantasy date notes at home perhaps even over genuine bills, each one would be marked with a unique code leading back to the printer that printed it just in case.
