For that nickel, I see the seller's ID is focus-509. How ironic that focus-509 posts out-of-fucus pics.

There are fools in this world.... but if you want to get Forever stamps at half price, look through their other items. I've bought some and did not have problems with USPS. They are on HiBid.

From nss-52's "error" Jefferson listing:

This coin falls under the Buffalo (1913-38) category in the Coins & Paper Money section of ebay. Don't miss out on the opportunity to add this one-of-a-kind coin to your collection.

From mrwhisker's 1955-S Lincoln listing:

The strike type is business and it was minted in San Francisco in the mint facilities last year.

Also from that same listing: "and is a must-have for any serious collector of US coins and paper money.".
Does EVERY AI-generated description end with this?

That's not because they were authentic US stamps. You could spend that counterfeit 1909-S VDB with no "problems", too.
