Oh my!  I do hope it was a legit item, for the buyer's sake.

 Me too. Was only represented as a sealed original item, which it was. So they didn't lie.

It's especially suspicious since they didn't post a single photo of the reverse of the coins, only five low-quality photos of the obverse and two of the COA.

I had the same thought and had posted it until I realized that it was sealed in plastic with a cardboard backing and the reverse cannot be seen. Then I deleted my post.

That box has nightmare written all over it. Exact box just sold on ebay for less than $300. Not sure if this is the buyer, but he's using the same photos. I asked him about it, and he dodged the question.

Wouldn't take much to get the box x-rayed to see if it has a dollar coin in it. Now whether it has the rare dollar in it is a whole different story!

I thought ebay did not allow "chance" listings? I world think a box of stale cheerios offering a "chance" shot at a random coin would surely be considered a "chance" listing. Guess I am wrong in that don't enforce THAT rule anymore!

However, "Sorry your insurance doesn't cover x-raying a box" OK, my sore hand is now on the box. Oh, I can't see the coin, let me move my hand and have you re-shoot it. EOB: Your insurance does not cover three views of a sprained wrist. You may owe seventy bazillion dollars.

Hysterical  Quote: They do enforce that rules (at least when coins are involved). VaultBox anyone?
