Putting the words "these sellers" and "thinking" in the same sentence is just wrong

I guess it's possible but I have a very difficult time believing these are non-informed individuals. Without checking feedback and such, my instinct is that these are predators.

At the very least, yes, fishing for a sucker.

Either way, it's shameful.

Oh well, at least we at CCF can't be fooled by that tripe!

(right?)

Kevin, that's an 'Atheist Cent'. They are stamped by several Atheist groups (mostly in the North-East states) every Sunday morning and issued to religious buyers/sellers in change.

There's a special power tool they use to get rid of the "G"; it's called the "Gee-Whiz" (available ONLY behind-the-counter at some Lowes and Home Depot sites).

Well attic people do alter coins I didn't think it was altered but if someone else does I always like to know how.i only put the picture on as a joke for what they was showing other people was asking for coins that was missing letters,unlike the 1924 missing the O either due to ware or a light stamp mine is different so if them people wanted a 1,000 what would they want for a real error.

It would have to be a pretty convincing description for someone to pull the "buy" trigger on any of those shown. I am always in disgusted awe of "sellers" who are so willing to compromise themselves scamming others and still able to sleep at night..

Kevin, I knew you were 'winking' when you posted your comment; which is why I added my 'winks' following.

Sorry if my humor went in the wrong direction for you.

(PS: Usually I don't ever come up with good jokes until the party is already over)
