I was thinking of selling a few duplicate Morgans to fund some new purchases. I just threw out the idea of hi-res photo listings of individual coins in favor of just rolling them and letting the ebay bidiots double quadruple the FMV of what I have.

Who in their right mind would sell this roll and not open it? Once again a OBW roll scam artists at work.

The same type of folk who go to Vegas expecting to drop quarter after quarter after quarter into slot machines hoping to hit it big.

No that would be the person who would BUY one of these unsearched rolls, not someone who would SELL a real OBW roll if he found one. As I pointed out I would sell it rather than opening it because as seen from this auction the chances of winning big are much better in selling it than opening it. The odds are very high that the best you would get by opening it would be in the $700 to $800 range. But by selling it he got an extra $5000....and did hit it big.

Whoa...$5800 for a roll of most likely common date morgans. For that money, the buyer could have bought a REALLY nice CC.

jpsned: "I'm tellin' ya, this guy is FOR REAL. In my last roll purchases, I found 25 SVDBs, three 1913 Liberty nickels, and the 15 missing 1894-S Barber dimes!"

That's funny!

Nobody, and I mean nobody, would ever sell a roll of coins for 3k if there was even the slightest chance it contained a high MS 1889-CC Morgan. From the looks of it, if that was in-fact an 1889-CC, it would be one of the best known grades. Nobody wants to be known as the guy that sells one of the finest 89-CC known to man for 3k on ebay. Those that purchase an item like this are either ignorant or have a lot of money to throw away.

Are you sure there wasn't a couple of 1964 Peace dollars in those rolls as well?

Here's the feedback from the buyer who dropped nearly 6k on that roll.

"Fast delivery Coins as described AAA +++"

Sounds about right in this bizzaro world...

....positive feedback for a high priced rip off...

...and someone gets negative back over a silly $3 coin.

Odd feedback considering the lot was described as an 1889, a cc dollar, and most likely the rest as mixed dates mints and conditions. So he gave A+++ feed back on a $600 - $700 roll he paid over $5,000 for.

ebay is full of ignorant buyers, this is par for the course. As Ed said, someone will give a negative for a $3 purchase but the fools that overpay have no clue and, apparently, don't want to admit their mistakes via feedback.

Just a dumb buyer who deserved to be taken IMO or just someone who has so much money it doesn't matter.

If they are throwing down this much money to "gamble," they are most likely not a real coin collector; just a rich person with maybe a mild interest in coins trying his hand at "luck"

I guess the Buyer wasn't too disappointed. He left good Feedback. (Or he was a pocket shiller)
