<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DMPL, post: 431268, member: 15534&quot;]What really gave it away to me was as I picked the coin up this morning, I knew that it felt lighter than a Morgan Dollar which is what caused the exercise for me to bring in some calibrated weights and check out the scale.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Good news is that it was purchased using PayPal and is supposedly backed by their loss provision should the seller not make good (and I believe he will). </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Sad news is that this seller had previously sold two other different Trade Dollars on eBay in recent weeks. I can only hope that the buyers either purchased a coin that was legitimate or that they found out otherwise and got their money back.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Best part of this story is how a group of knowledgable numismatists came together to give their unbiased assistance to a collector who needed their expertise. For that, my friends, I am all the richer.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you! :smile[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
