<p>[QUOTE=&quot;HandsomeToad, post: 367172, member: 12965&quot;]Here we go, a situation has just occurred so I figured why not let everyone follow this one as it goes down. Here&#039;s the listing in question:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;rd=1&amp;item=320242917797&amp;ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&amp;ih=011" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;rd=1&amp;item=320242917797&amp;ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&amp;ih=011" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;rd=1&amp;item=320242917797&amp;ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&amp;ih=011</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The item in question (lot sale) is the second one from the bottom on the left and here&#039;s my message to the seller:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>&quot;Look a little closer at the &quot;1792&quot; and you will find it isn&#039;t 1792. I can see the coin but can&#039;t make out the date but I do know it&#039;s a Draped Bust Cent, just like the 1803 you have in the lot, and Draped Bust Cents were minted starting in 1796 (see link below):</i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://coinfacts.com/large_cents/draped_bust_large_cents/draped_bust_large_cents.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://coinfacts.com/large_cents/draped_bust_large_cents/draped_bust_large_cents.html" rel="nofollow"><i>http://coinfacts.com/large_cents/draped_bust_large_cents/draped_bust_large_cents.html</i></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>If you would like to send me a better resolution photo of the coin in question, I will be happy to try to determine the date the best I can and give you my opinion on what it&#039;s date actually is.</i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>George&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&quot;</i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I just sent the message to the seller so I will keep you posted as to the outcome.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ribbit&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ps: I run across something similar to this many times every day and I email the seller to try and keep some poor smuck from buying something that isn&#039;t what it&#039;s being sold as but not always will the seller fix the problem. I thought it would be interesting to go &quot;live&quot; with this one and get sideline input as it goes down.&nbsp; :hammer:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
