Does anyone remember who the seller was? This would be good info now that the listing is gone.

I believe it was eyekrasyisu, which no longer comes up as a user I.D. so he may have been NARU'd. From a google search that brought up a different conversation on another forum, he apparently listed it a 2nd time which also got pulled. Edited: Do we have auto-word-replacement in replies now? I.D. (minus the .'s) was being replaced with I'd..  Edited by xshift

Quote:Use the link for reporting ebay auctions found here at Coin Community Yes, that's a good link!  I put in my .02, and I know PCGS was alerted as well. Btw, I don't want to suggest ebay doesn't act on these auctions. I'm just bummed that bidder IDs are now encrypted, because I used to directly warn people about a lot of fake stuff--not just coins. As this forum proves, an open online community is a good thing. Edited by DVCollector

An XF40 blast white coin with wear  As mentioned, report these sellers. The devices just look wrong. Link removed. Good! Quote:
I imagine the seller was a tad disappointed Better yet, hopefully his luck will run out with law enforcement. swcoin.ecrater.com

Thank you for a very informative discussion. I am an ebay coin collector and trust PCGS slabs. Now I am not so sure what to buy. Even PCGS slab is not a guarantee now. |

I'm a novice on these coins, but the wear along the part of the rim below the date seems unusually strong compared to the rest of the coin. If I saw that I'd question how you could get that much wear there but not on the date just millimeters away.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Saruma. I saw a "1795 Flowing Hair Silver Dollar $1 2 Leaves PCGS F 15" listed on the ebay. There are current 17 bids with the highest bid at $3150.55. Does this PCGS slab and coin look OK? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...TRK:MEWAX:IT I hope to buy one of Flowing Hair and Bust dollars to complete my dollar type coins. However, I am not so confident to buy a coin at such price since I do not have the skill to evaluate the coin. |

the flowing hair looks legit to me but this isn't my area of collecting so you may want to wait for another opinion but I don't see any features of the obvious fakes I have seen of either the slab nor the coin
