<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 132023, member: 4626&quot;]There&#039;s just no way a coin genuinely that old would have that much luster left... at the very least it would have toned some.</p><p><br /></p><p>Though I think it is more likely a replica than a fake (distinction being that I don&#039;t think it was made with the intent of having someone believe it to be real).&nbsp; Maybe the seller honestly doesn&#039;t know it&#039;s not real.&nbsp; Guess it&#039;s not that much of a defense to say maybe the seller is an idiot rather than a liar, lol, but guess it&#039;s a possibility.&nbsp; Though the 0 feedback buyers seem suspicious.</p><p><br /></p><p>Out of curiosity I looked up the values of this coin, if genuine... according to the 2006 Red Book it would be worth $18,000 in AG-3... $375,000 in MS-60... in November 1995 a gem BU of this sold at auction for $577,500.&nbsp; If I had this coin, even in low condition, I&#039;d spring to have it authenticated and graded, and if I were inclined to sell it, certaintly wouldn&#039;t put it on eBay with no reserve, lol.&nbsp; Again this seller is either a liar or an idiot, take your pick.&nbsp; I guess it&#039;s technically only a scam if someone is dumb enough to fall for it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
