Enlil. The seller is being deceptive. The information itself is factual to a point, however they are trying to confuse the reader by supplying unless information about 50c coins (and placing a 50c in the picture, for what purpose?) and then try to sell a damaged 20c coin (worth 20c....just) implying that it is some sort of error. This one is poor form!

A number of 67-68 dated patterns exist in both round & dodecagonal format.
I wonder if this 20 cent coin slipped through? have a good for yourself.
If you think what I think then I must be right.


The seller has been very careful not to tell an outright lie, but it is as misleading as hell.

I suspect that the buyer is going to be very disappointed that his 20 cent peice isn't dodecagonal.

I would like to introduce these ebay buyers to my Nigerian investment scheme.

I like this word and I think it applies to the people that bit on this worthless 20 cent coin.

Dear tez12008,

What exactly are you trying to sell here!
A mangled 20c?

I think he is more misleading himself rather than other people. Might be one bob short of a shilling ;-)

I reckon the Bidiots are the ones that are missing something, for eg:
A few bricks short of a load.
More than one Kangaroo missing from the top paddock.
A few sandwiches short of a picnic.

Seller knows exactly what he's selling! I reckon once this one goes, he'll make some more! He's got 3 bidders so far, so there'll be 2 underbidders (suckers) who will be sure to bid on his next 'rarity'.

I think he knows what he is doing. Too detailed with the smoke and mirrors to not be very clear on the intention

Why the heck would the same bidder raise the bid on himself by a whole dollar, I ask?

Libertad,
I am pretty sure what you are describing happens if someones maximum bid is higher than the amount that they are currently winning the auction at and someone else makes a bid which is lower that their maximum bid.
Eg
Item is starting at 99c
Person A bids $5. They will be winning the auction at 99c
Person B bids $1.50 and person A will automatically be winning at $2.
