First, most all aucitons are private. While I can respect that on large purchases, eBay protects your ID and excessive use is a warning flag to me. Second, some of the aucitons I can see: 2 different coins pictured: [URL]http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220510625317[/URL] Deceptive pictures: Basically every time Bad titles: every time... Deceptive pricing with "Buy it now" Seems to be everywhere... While I am no expert, I would say most of the coins are damaged (cleaned, etc...) genuine coins and in some cases copies.
