"scarce" and "rare" to describe almost any common coin out there.

This coin catalogs for $500 in MS64 but our grade is MS70. Just think of the value you could get (If you hadn't seen our Sorry Grading Service coin first) because there is no reserve and the bidding starts at $.99.

Always one of my favourites:

"This is a 1960 MINT never been opened silver proof set!!! Still in its original package!!! **UNOPENED** These coins have been issued from the US Mint 44 years ago. The 1960 Proof set has less sets made then any other sets in the 1960's!!!

BEST PART
Could this be a lucky set? With a chance of finding a Franklin half worth $10,000.00 or Lincoln Penny worth over $2,000.00 or Frosted Cameo coins!!
NO! IT COULD'NT BE BECAUSE I ALREADY OPENED IT DISCREETLY OVER STEAM AND THEN PUT IT TOGETHER AGAIN! OH< MABYE I SHOULD ALSO MENTION THAT THE CHANCES OF FINDING ONE ARE SO SMALL, YOU WOULD HAVE TO BUY ONE EVERY WEEK OF YOUR LIFE AND PROBABLY NOT GET ONE ANYWAY

HAPPY BIDDING!!"

Andrew

Oh! heres another "estate sale" one...

Those are also some of my personal favourites Morgan Fred!

"Here we have a nice lot of 15 UNSORTED, UNSEARCHED coins! Bid with confidence"

OR

"I have a nice box of coins here for sale, one lot is 3 coins, Ill just reach into the box for you, and pull out 3 coins WITHOUT LOOKING AT THEM, because these coins are UNSEARCHED! Happy Bidding!"

makes me laugh so darn hard!

"Fresh From Estate Sale" (vs stale sale?) "Fresh" to the current seller perhaps? Mike

I like the ones that say "unsearched" and then provide a list of the dates you will be getting!

"Some people have found GOLD in my lots of uncleaned ancient coins".

Really? That's awfully generous of you, giving away coins worth $1000 or more for $19.95...

"This two-dollar coin has a mule-like rim!"

"Very rare, looks just like a valuable one-dollar mule."

Either it's a mule or it isn't. Mule-like? What a joke!

From actual descriptions of Morgans:

"I'm not a professional grader, but a dealer told me this [XF-40 at best] was at least an MS-65."

"Blast white!" [Because it's been whizzed so much.]

"I'm not a professional grader. Some might call this an XF while others might call it an AU." [But really, folks, it's barely an F-12.]

"No returned on certified slabbed coins." [I put this VF-35 in my own slab and labeled it MS-63. So, you buy it, it's yours and forget about trying to return it. Sukka!]
