The coins I have are not marked replica and ebay says it is ok to sell a coin as a replica or novelty and they have a seperate section for them but they must be clearly markes replica and you have to have a good photo of this word. otherwise it is strictly against the law and against ebay rules.. </p><p><br /></p><p>I could sell these as real coins on ebay if I wanted to be a thief and may even be able to get by with it. has any of you ever seen any of the peace and morgan and trade dollars sold on ebay as errors because the seller said they stick to a magnet.I saw some that were sold for high prices not long ago. of course I never bought any of them because I knew what they were. Well these that were sold on ebay are the same type I own. there is no way to tell them from real except to see if they stick to a magnet. a real silver or copper coin will not stick to a magnet.I hope this information will help someone.</p><p><br /></p><p>I just thought of something since I'm just sitting around today not doing much.
