As mentioned above, I believe it is a scan NOT a scam!
if it is a photo, same applies, the seller does not know how to crop the background away. (how long did it take you guys to learn how to post reasonable pictures?)all his pictures are like that.
the sellers 1st language is French from Quebec. Question here: if YOU could speak another language on the same level the seller speaks and writes English, would you consider yourself fortunate?
Have you guys considered it might be a very young collector or perhaps a handicapped person?
It is known on the bay that many French Canadian sellers simply do not care and have "that" typical attitude that "buyers have to be happy with what is offered". You guys will notice this on some, not all, other listings from Quebec. sometimes they only post one side. It is just a fact the French have a different attitude. we either accept it, or not.
Please note: THIS IS NOT A RACIAL or PREDUCIE COMMENT !!, just a simple fact of how other peoples / cultures mind works.
After blowing up his auction pictures, I have to say that there are tons of other sellers listings which are (purposely( xxx-times worse! His are definitely sharp! He just does not know better! Is that so bad?
Have any of you offered to help him how to get better images posted?
and NO, the listing is not from anyone I know!!, I am simply tired of always seeing the negative first!
Sorry guys, but, that is how I see it.

You have to consider what 47P7 says. Not everybody is perfect.

Bottom line is if your shopping for coins on ebay then only good clear pics matter. ebay is a gigantic shopping store where you never see your item in hand so the better the pics the better you can at least see your item. I dont believe this seller needs sympathy instead message him or her with some photo taking tips. give me a break..its ebay

yes pennyman
how did you struggle when you started? were you at times frustrated?
Or were you perfect from the word go?
remember, nobody has to bid on his auctions.
let him ask his own questions and come to his own conclusions.
being negative without any real cause does not help. remember, it is not long ago the listings were allowed without any pictures.
and there are still some which say: picture coming soon. and they never do.

%94 feedback rating is all I need to see. I'm sure you can purchase with confidence, no need for a picture of the coin or error.
