Yeah this guy is crazy. I was at work earlier when I first posted this but after reading everyone's comments and checking his other listings it is wild. IO can't believe he said to use the rotary tool to polish coins and even showed it. That other than the obvious should prove that the "piece" dollar is not what he says it is. ebay is really bad since they got rid of the reporting tool. I can't trust any older raw coins anymore and I'm sure soon enough even the TPG ones will be risky the way they are going letting so many bad sales through.

The point is German Silver contains no silver whatsoever. I think there are many people that do not realize this when you see the auction prices realized.

Sterling silver does have silver in it, 925 parts per thousand is silver. German silver has NO silver in it. It is an alloy of copper, nickel, and zinc.

When people sell German silver on ebay they're definitely preying on the public.

I would say the problem with 'german silver' is when people started producing bars with it.

Before that, it was just commonly known as costume jewelry.

Good grief, this thing is horrid. Someone should give him a "peace" of their mind.

Interesting, I never heard of "German silver" before. So many ways to scam people out there. I guess we will see if someone buys it sometime.

I did not know that German silver had no silver in it,I thought it contained a small amount of pure silver.

This seller is a PIECE of work!! The TPG slabber is also a PIECE ...

Could they both be one-in-the-same? Or, perhaps they had the same 2nd grade teacher?
