I also noticed in his description he didn't mention anywhere that the coin is environmentally damaged.

A loupe reveals moderate obverse hairlines. So, despite the "environmental" damage designation, did someone clean the obverse, resulting in a wonky retoning? |

$2524 with 26 bids and 4d13h to go. In my personal opinion, I would never spend this much on a single coin, but that is because I don't have that much spare money to blow off in the first place  |

Even with ED, I still like this coin. I would buy it at $1000, but that would be my limit. What a shame that this happened to the coin. Full disclosure about the condition of its condition is the RIGHT thing to do. Shame on the seller.

FUNNY, seller ended this and his other misrepresented Heritage listing this morning at 9AM:
"This listing was ended by the seller because the item was sold."

I have noticed more than once that when a topic gets created here about the integrity of an ebay offer/scam, the listings either get pulled or edited.    Edited by KevinH

This is why ebay should have a "block seller" function. Sellers can block crooked buyers, but buyers can't block crooked sellers like this. I save sellers like this as "favorite", and then you can attach notes... I attach appropriate notes. Just so I never do business with someone like this... ever. |

I engaged him in dialogue. He was defiant.

@ratio411, ebay does have a block seller feature, if you save a search go to "more refinements", "seller" and choose exclude and add all the sellers you wish to the list. I have a couple dozen sellers excluded from my saved searches.  |

@ratio...That 1861 cent appears to be an AU+ (aka slider UNC) details coin that was harshly cleaned in an effort to create luster and pass-off as an UNC. JMO
