Quote:This same seller also has a lovely "Proof" 1937 Mercury dime for only $650. It comes with magnificent wear and beautiful hairlines. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-Colle...AOSwoeVd6pJU Dunno. Those 1937 and 1940 "Proof" Mercs look exactly like every other environmentally damaged, circulated, acid-treated, metal-filed, and wire-brushed "proof" I've been offered at coin shows. I suspect the seller was around 180 proof when doing the listings, though, because the decimal points seem to have been placed two spaces to the right on the prices.  |

That 1819 Half Dollar - whoever did that should be arrested for vandalism, why could they have not done target practice on a rusty Kennedy from 1972. Then again its a bit too well round for a pre 1830s coin - are we sure its not a Chinese fake? The Victorian 3d - good lord, funny how anyone can even call a badly cleaned coin - UNC. Is that the new way to charge for UNC coins, now by polishing heavily worn rubbish to make it look shiny - that coin would be VG on a good day. Its good you guys can report this tosh to ebay, because on Trademe they have removed my reporting privileges and now issue me warnings when I tell someone through the Q and A feature what they have is deceptively overgraded, overpriced, counterfeit or completely wrong. Most of these online auctions don't care about overpriced and misdescribed items - getting the biggest success fee possible is the bottom line. It was good in the early 2000s when a private company - but bought by some omni corp organisation - it swotched to profits first and ethics last. Edited by Princetane

Do we really need 2 Topics for these? No, we do not. I can fix that with a simple title adjustment and topic shift.  |

Here's something from the UK Gumtree site:  Superb photography skills and only about £11,749.50 too expensive! |

That coin is last year and already worn and stained!
Is that why its so rare as there must be thousands of flawless ones still out there.

I think Lockdown is making more and more people pull out the change from their pockets and list it on ebay!  Take this for example: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1p-NEW-P...100667.m2042From the great photo, I can't see what the so-called 'missing rim' error is! But I'm sure it isn't worth £190!  |

These coins don't look like proofs to me!  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2015-ROY...100040.m2060Of course, perhaps the seller had two 2015 British proof sets, broke open the packaging, took out the 2p's, used them as pocket pieces for a while and then kicked them around their backyard for a few hours before wiping them clean and sticking them on ebay...
