One other thing about this eBayer, alisons coins, you'll notice that all listings are private so when you look at the feedback you don't know what was sold unless the person leaving the feedback mentions what they bought. I see they are now selling an 1895 S Morgan, most likely fake. One negative feedback states they were sold a counterfeit Morgan.

Received full refund and this dealer goes on the "Do Not Buy" list. Thanks again, all, for setting me straight on this coin and dealer, especially 52Raymo, Indian_hoarder and adam126402. You guys just saved me from a bad mistake.

What is ebay policy on this? Since you sent it back to them, they'll just do it again. Better to get the refund and throw the "coin" in the garbage.

And hopefully you leave truthful feedback of the incident. This wasn't a "fluke", this is the seller's intent - shipping counterfeits and using photos of real coins. In the app, I see many negatives about counterfeits (several neutrals as well), but using the website, it only appears to show past year. But this seller using the multiple accounts I mentioned above, has been doing this for a decade. Your feedback may help future buyers, even if it will never get this guy shut down.

Known for selling fake cents, Morgans, silver and gold bars.

The coin you received is counterfeit. The first one pictured is not.

I wonder if Bobby can do anything about this guy.

More reasons why CCF is one of the most valuable resources for any collector, I had no idea this was a fake, only that the color was off relative to the level of wear on the coin. Thanks to IGE, Everest, Indian Hoarder, RedRaider, Raymo52 and IndianGoldEagle as now I know what to look for in the future.

Right you are IndianGoldEagle. I reported the coin as counterfeit to ebay. If I'd gotten the coin I was bidding on (as pictured) I'd have been very happy. I'm in debt to this site and all of you for your knowledge and willingness to share it.

Seller's alt account mentioned above has another 1908-s for sale, if anyone wants more proof all he sells are fakes of rare coins.
