<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Richard01, post: 107129, member: 2700&quot;]This was sort of fun. I&#039;ve been looking for a nice quality Trade dollar for my type set, but not wanting to spend the money. Along comes this ebay auction... see the terrible pic? No one is bidding. The auction just says chop marked 1875s trade dollar. Pic is sooo bad that the odds of it being a fake are huge. </p><p>I email the seller and ask a few simple questions, and get some answers that make me think this may be real, and may be nice. I put in a bid for the opening price of $56.</p><p>No one else bids, and I win the coin. It arrived yesterday, and low and hehold, it is a solid AU coin with lots of mint luster left. The chop mark is clean on the reverse and did not bend the coin, or show through to the obverse like some. It is also a nice small chop mark. all in all, a great coin for my album, at a great price. And, it is real (I have some fakes, and know what they look like, plus the weight was spot on). </p><p>Sellers need to know that they are not going to make money if they don&#039;t do a better job of listing and picturing their items!</p><p>good for me though! I love the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
