My Mother used to say "a fool and his money soon parts" well some 'fool' is going to lose his/hers.

This person is buying lots of (unsearched) IHC's for about $1 apiece and then listing them for sale at 2/$1 with free shipping?

What's up with that?

I'll bet their source for IHC's threw that in for a laugh.

BRODE IN MY STORE BY A CUSTOMER , WI DONT NOT THE GRADE OF THIS COIN , ONLY I NOT THIS IS THE SUPER KEY FLY EAGLE CENT

I know my spelling is poor but this one is a riot. Not sure how you CLENED a coin either. He or she should have been more carefull with people that just BRODE something in.
Don't complain about this one. We all need good laughs once in a while and this one could get better. Might be more of them.

What, pray tell is "Row" condition? If it's raw, then why is it in a slab?

The "5" on a real 1856 Flying eagle looks different than the "5" on an 1857-1858 flying eagle. The "6" on a real 1856 looks like a "6" not like a mutilated "8"

Let's see, no capital letters at the start of both sentences, no periods at the end of each sentence. Commas and apostrohes are also missing where they should be.

So, if written grammatically correct, the above would read "Hahaha, nice laugh, doesn't anyone realize just how rare that coin is? And, that someone who doesn't even have a good command of grammar would have a coin worth in the 1000's."
