<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 5324233, member: 27832&quot;]I was looking at new BIN listings on eBay, and I came across this one:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/Silver-dollars-peace-1921-High-Relief/353333293880" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/Silver-dollars-peace-1921-High-Relief/353333293880" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/itm/Silver-dollars-peace-1921-High-Relief/353333293880</a></p><p><br /></p><p>A 1921 Peace dollar that doesn&#039;t look the <i>least</i> bit right to me. It sold in ten minutes.</p><p><br /></p><p>I had a look at the seller&#039;s Sold listings:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.com/sch/tcre_58/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_ipg&amp;_from&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/sch/tcre_58/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_ipg&amp;_from&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/sch/tcre_58/m.html?_nkw&amp;_armrs=1&amp;_ipg&amp;_from&amp;LH_Complete=1&amp;LH_Sold=1&amp;rt=nc</a></p><p><br /></p><p>He&#039;s been selling a <i>lot</i> of &quot;1932-S Proof Silver Quarters&quot;, 1909-S Lincolns, and 1921 Peace dollars. That&#039;s often a danger sign in itself -- multiples of key or semi-key dates, with relatively few sales of other coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Looking at those 1909-S Lincolns, they don&#039;t all look alike, but a couple of them look like obvious fakes to me. (Check out <a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/1909-S-Lincoln-Cent-Wheat-Penny-Key-Date-/353312161712?hash=item52430bbfb0%3Ag%3ApNIAAOSwpk9f0DkO&amp;nma=true&amp;si=43mDH3qiY8Aj2Sr65xoBlxrRVNc%253D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;nordt=true&amp;rt=nc" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/1909-S-Lincoln-Cent-Wheat-Penny-Key-Date-/353312161712?hash=item52430bbfb0%3Ag%3ApNIAAOSwpk9f0DkO&amp;nma=true&amp;si=43mDH3qiY8Aj2Sr65xoBlxrRVNc%253D&amp;orig_cvip=true&amp;nordt=true&amp;rt=nc" rel="nofollow">this bad boy</a>, with no surcharge for the extra rim on the reverse!) The 1932-S quarters are worse, and so are the 1921 Peace dollars.</p><p><br /></p><p>The only active auctions he has at the moment are for a few common dates, and none of them scream &quot;fake&quot; to me, so there&#039;s nothing to report at the moment -- but he&#039;s sold <i>dozens</i> of crude fakes, and so far he&#039;s got 100% positive feedback on them. If he&#039;s pricing them to sell quickly BIN, it&#039;ll be hard to catch and report active examples.</p><p><br /></p><p>I know there are a couple of us here who have back-channels to eBay&#039;s enforcement department. Is there anything we can do about this abuser?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
