Message:: [QUOTE="10gary22, post: 1355867, member: 23626"]The seller here was obviously running a scam. The listing is ambiguous and the picture does not match the description in so far as a label is marked "CC". But that could mean something besides the mint mark to the seller. Ask the question before making any bids. I looked at a 57 Washington - B a while back and asked the seller if it was a Type B. He replied "No, that is to tell me I have 2 of those listed and one is marked A, the other B". But I think he was hoping someone would buy it thinking it was a type B. Today, not many people have extra money for collectibles. Sales are way off, at least according to dealers at recent show I attended. Many are, in desperation, getting quite creative in listing things. I mean, on eBay, you cannot flip the coin and take a look. The thing that bothers me most is the "No returns". I mean, if I sold my 1878 CC and the buyer didn;t want it, they would be more than welcome to return it. No problem. (Mine isn't for sale, though)lol. Like everyone has been saying though, all along. The seller likely knows a lot more about the item than a potential buyer. Especially when sold through eBay. Proceed with caution. It's better to have missed out, than to have been taken.[/QUOTE]
