"I have the check and the bank stamp to verify." But wait....it was paid for with "100 in gold coins".
This entire story is complete rubbish.

100% scam and some uninformed idiot out in Coinland is gonna get their clock cleaned!
Shades of "The Bullion & Exchange Bank" machine crimped CC end coin rolls a few years back that were being sold by a scammer out of Utah.

What is with the Wheaties in the picture? Do they come with the listing too or are those just for decoration... This listing made me smile.  |

The story is quite imaginative. At least give the seller credit for literary skills, which is added to the musical skills claimed in the listing.
So his grandfather's great-grandfather was so taken by these rolls of dollar coins that he immediately exchanged them for the gold he had in his pocket. They have been in the family now for nearly 140 years, untouched. Believe it or not

Seller could win an Oscar for that listing. That roll could be a movie prop too  |

As others have mentioned, this seller deserves an Oscar. Such a fun and exciting story! Do you think the coins inside are at least uncirculated? I hope for the buyers sake that this isn't a lie.

Tremendous listing story - no way to say what is inside that $50 roll.
We'll likely never find out.

Looks like it disappeared! I'm guessing it got pulled by ebay for listing violations of some sort. |
