If you think it might be a scam. It probably is.

Date could have been removed using Photoshop and without noticing it the A in Australia was included.

The rarest commemorative coins are the no mintmark/counterstamp issues the RAM accidently let out at the Coin Fairs and Shows. Existance ranges from 1 to 6 depending on year - 2004 to 2007. Then there is the 2007 Sydney Harbour Bridge with the B counterstamp upside down and opposite side of reverse - only 3 of them.
Die fills could be repeatative and he says only 3 known so could be more.

How about issued by the C.H.I.N.A. rare coin-WE make it all on demand- Company. A German guy ( on ebay selling copies there) told me straight: I can have anything made, even coins with your face on it !just give me 3 weeks... scary... HHB Edited by hhbkiddo

Even a sanded-down '58 Dollar must be worth more than a buck in melt value, no? They were silver...

There is now three bids for the coin.

All three bids by the same person, with zero feedback. Me thinks the scam has just escalated a level.

Bidding history shows 3 bids, all from the same bidder, all for £1000. I think this listing has to be some wierd practical joke.
Maybe he was dared to list it for a ridiculous price, or I suppose he could be teetering on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
The coin may be worth a few dollars at best to a variety/error collector if it's struck through oil/grease.
life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved

Here is a scenario. Bidder buys it now at $1,000,000. Opts for the cash on pick up option, doesn't turn up. Seller lodges un-paid Item dispute, buyer says he paid and produces same coin with date removed. Seller produces same coin as well, however has stated in listing that he knows of three of these coins. Seller stuck with ebay fees that would buy a nice car, and a probable legal battle with ebay. Moral of the story? I have too much time on my hands. |

I have a 1984 $1 without a year/date.
I took it to a well known coin shop in Sydney and I was advised the coin had been tampered with.
Also, a aunc 2006 $1 with a very faint 6 - but with no signs of tampering - go figure....?
