Ahhhh...it's probably a fake gold coin. Jez, $485 down the tubes to a roll-seed scammer. People are just plain dumb.

E-Bay should really be stepping in and doing something about this, on the hand, the laissez faire capitalist in me says "a fool and his money are soon parted"

I agree. These auctions of this sort are getting way out of hand We really should start reporting these auctions to ebay. Enough is enough. Les |

This seller has a few dozen of such rolls--what an amazing coincidence!  |

Lot's of rolls with a gold coin ender. I bet NOBODY gets a roll with a gold coin stuck in the middle somewhere. And this guy sells awesome stuff. In the description, his rolls have pretty much yielded every key date imaginable. I doubt it, unless it was an ender and fetched more money than the coin itself was worth.
Folks if you have a low grade key date coin, and want to sell it for 150% of it's vale, just stick it on the end of a wheat roll and you will get mad money for that roll.

They are guilty as the sellers IMO. |

I can't believe how many "unsearched" rolls are like that - like the seller ever walked into a bank and got that!

I think it's funny how sometimes there is a coin on the end that has a hole in it, and the coin right behind it is gold. And they have several just like that. I mean what are the odds.

I give him credit for his sales tactics. It seems to be a good gimmick. One of his buyers paid $400 and left 100% Feed Back w/ "Can't wait to see the roll Great Ebayer"
With a gold coin on the end, wouldn't you wait to see if the coin is real! Can you imagine kicking your self in the Ask, because you already left positive feedback. lol Theirs so many less than happy people who still gave him 100%...Amazing. And Its funny how they dance around negative feed back,..ie "Unsearched?"....Hello! "No s no d 8ih all corroded" "Is this really worth the $$$".....come on! Let people know whats really going on here. Gives me an idea for another topic.

No returns yet lots of bidders. Feedbacks could be from people he knows you know. Sure is odd he found so many similar error rolls.  |

I have looked at quite a few of these rolls on ebay, but for some reason I have never bought one. I think some of the roll sellers are honest, but some of these others are just hilarious. What immediately came to mind is a coin blogger who stated in bold and all caps on his website, their is no such thing as an unsearched roll. |
