Been going on for a while on ebay. They don't do anything about it.

Most of the small date 60P and 70S coins are incorrectly identified by the sellers on ebay. If you don't know what you're looking at and the pictures don't let you tell....STAY AWAY.

Yeah I notice this a lot. I noticed a lot of the fixed price ones are usually small dates. The ones that start off at 99 cents in an auction are often times not really a small date. This obviously isn't all the time, but this is a trend I noticed.

I have even seen PCGS coins label Small Dates when they were Large Dates. I always look for coins slabbed or described as Large Dates but were mislabeled and were actually Small Dates....funny how no one makes the mistake the opposite way....

I find this variety very hard to detect sometimes. But I'm quite sure many (or all) of those are large dates. Very sad that those people are getting ripped off. Hope they figured it out and get their money back.

At first I thought it was hard to tell but now it seems easy. If I am looking at one and it kind of looks like a small date but I'm not sure, then it's a large date. Once you see the actual small date it is obvious. Well to me at least.

lol. Hey that's a good way to make a living too, if you don't mind ripping people off :/ seems like people just trust sellers.

Murrellington...yeah we'll leave it at that! Lol

It's been a crazy couple of months, I resigned from Unilever and was interviewing with P&G. The most intense interview process of my life! Then some time getting used to my new position, coupled with heavy business travel that I haven't been used to since my early Unilever days.

Anyway long story short, I'm back--and I've got a few bank rolls calling my name at home right after I stop for some food lol.
