    The writeup says it's certified by NGC when it is clearly raw, and I do mean raw!

    I made an offer of $0.99, you know, since they offer 'free shipping'. It wouldn't let me offer $0.50 :/

    You had better watch out. He might take you up on it.

    Looks like it was amateur night at the Chinese American coin factory.

    Looks like it might have been a wrapper for a chocolate coin.

    I recall "winning" one on eBay with terrible photos, but a low price. "Hey, Buyer Protection's got me", I figured. When it showed up, it was one of those three-inch novelty coins. Wonder if this is one, too. (Yeah, Buyer Protection covered me.)

    My response;
    It doesn't matter where you got it, is a fake. Listing is being reported by multiple people. Please remove it and stop selling counterfeit coins.

    Real "coin"? Yes. Gold? Only in color. Looks plastic to me.
