Now those are some funny pics. I'd definitely say photoshoped. He may have done it intentionally and not trying to decieve, but it definitely looks funny.

Yeah, questionable for sure. The seller has 20k feedback though.

What's odd is that he could just as easily post four photos, two full slab shots and two coin enlargements and nobody would be talking about it. It's really because of the lens effect s/he used.
Friends don't let Friends use bad Photoshop Filters!

Haha, that photo is hilarious! I agree with Waxemm in that he may not have been trying to deceive. He mentions in the description that he zoomed the photos in. That is however, an extremely funny way to do so, by placing it in the slab.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...:RTQ:US:1123I sent the seller of this coin a message yesterday, to let him know the coin pictured was not a Small Motto. I though perhaps he had posted the wrong pic or something. I've done this several times with sellers and they are usually thankful. I'm not sure this guy was. He responded with. Quote:
This is a 1864 small motto 2 cent not a large one.How could you determine that from a picture? Ummm. Wow. I just hope someone doesn't buy it thinking that it's a rare coin when it's not.
