Quote:It has no mint mark; It is Double Dyed; & it has Scratches & Gouges on the Obverse.  No mint mark - meaning that no mint made it = rare! Doubled Dyed - Pre cursor to the '60's Tie Dyed = Forward thinking for that era = RARE! Scratches - well - it has some = almost rare Edited by Dearborn

His listings are unbelievable. He says proudly "I have had a passionate interest in Coins since I was young & this interest continues as well as the drive to keep learning".
Maybe he should join Coin Community Forum to learn a bit more about the real value of coins and how to recognise errors!

On top of the price tag, you have to pay the shipping! If I'm paying that much the least you could do is ship it to me for free!

Etsy keeps nagging me to be an affiliate for them. They want to pay me to send clicks to their coin listings. I keep telling them no and why.  Quote: I have heard that Etsy prices are a way to launder money. The same could be said of any online marketplace.   to the Community! |

Do people actually think people are going to fork over thousands of dollars for these, or what? I would love to ask sellers like this two questions: 1) What sort of person is going to spend a large sum of money on a coin? 2) What sort of person is most likely to know the true value of a coin? |

That's just another day on Etsy haha. Coins are so overpriced it's an actual joke. You realize when you know how to think, it empowers you far beyond those who know only what to think.

On the plus side, does it make the folks on The Coin Vault seem fair and reasonable, by comparison?  Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
