Saw this listing while strolling along...seller claims to have an 1879-CC and 1891-CC Morgan, and has a 99 cent opening bid. Both coins retail for hundreds of dollars each, by the way.

I am amused by the seller's statement - "Please bid with confidence, as there are no returns."

The 1879 could be genuine, but the 1891 exhibits the soft (rounded) letters and date frequently seen on counterfeits.

1891-CC (subject vs PCGS graded coin)

Yes, "Buy with confidence" because when I've got your money, I don't want hear from you again.
