Morgans/Peace Dollars - Way Below Spot

I clicked completed listings on his profile and it sold on November 15th for $1.99.
I think he meant to put it up for auction but accidentally put a 'but it now'.

Listing mistake most likely.

Contact the Seller thru ebay and ask him what happened.

I posted this a while ago (as attested) on another site. I am trained in research, though I applied my training to a field far-flung from numismatics. I suggest here, also -- and again, that ebay based research should be done with one brow cocked -- too much toxin (questionable, self-serving data insertions) to be safely ingested. Still, brow aloft, I go there, quite often.

When I become curious about a coin's market value, I tend to take advice from [expert's name omitted for this re-post]. I understand [name] to advise that the most reliable route to accurate info is to go to ebay and once there skip the asking prices and go instead to check the SOLD ITEMS checkbox in the left-side column.

I maintain interest in several non-numismatic collectibles including vintage Disney animation cels.

I went to Ebay/ Keyword: Disney cels / Show only sold items/ List from highest plus shipping to lowest. My specific interest was in a vintage matched set of SONG OF THE SOUTH Limited Edition cels. I own #143/350 bought in the year of issue, 1986, methinks.

Here's what I learned using the aforementioned research method: On April 30, 2020, a seller using the name rahoregon sold a matched set like mine as "buy it now" for $1,995.00. His was number 88 of 350. : On June 25, 2020, a seller also using the name rahoregon also sold a matched set like mine also as "buy it now" for $2,995.00. His was also number 88 of 350.

Does this have repercussions for coin collectors doing research, or is it somehow explainable? Beats me!

Nice research route! @nss-52. I would, however, dismiss a few bits: those akin to the "1 bid $0.99 followed by the note 'Best offer accepted.'" The bidding obviously froze at the moment of offer acceptance and we don't know much about that offer. You do cite other examples highly supportive of your position, methinks.

Probably meant to be an auction and was accidentally placed under BIN. I've done it once(worse than this) and didn't sell it. It was a mistake and before I could correct it it sold. Too bad if people don't like it. I get it but you also need to be understanding. I'll take the negative hit if necessary. I'm also more careful now.

Just remember the old saying ....." No Santa Claus when it comes to numismatics ."
It is absolutely nuts to think you can buy Silver Dollars for a 1.99.
Especially with everyone from the plumber to the Uber driver talking about it .
Even one ounce Maples are 4 to 5 dollars over spot .

Modern $1 silver commemoratives contain 0.77 troy oz of silver, so most of those are selling above melt.
