You can ALWAYS find some variations on " Buffalo nickel" on ebay. Bufalo, bufallo, buffallo, buffalow, etc. People misspell "nickel" on a pretty regular basis, too. A couple years ago I posted photos of some nickel wrappers I got from my wife's bank where they had it spelled as "nickles" on the wrappers! Oh well. If there are error coins why not error coin wrappers? (Want some half dollars that just woke up? Search ebay for "WAKING Liberty") (How about a coin with some guts? Search on "Walking Liverty"...) (Want an expensive dime that doesn't have much luster? Search "Liberty Seated DIM"...) (Want a silver dollar to place in your collection of Barbie dolls? Search "doller") Edited by weerdsteev

Lot of "Eire" Coinage There is no mention of Ireland. I guess they think Eire is a country. |

Well, it is a country... it's just not an English word.

Walking Liberty Silver Dollar 1993 32g
was a 1993 ASE Well, it says liberty ,silver and dollar, and she's walking. Nowhere except among coin collectors is there any indication of ASE. IOW, I would think any collector would know exactly what they meant by their description. Quote:
Liberty Dollar - 1 oz. Fine Silver
was a 2000 ASE Same idea, but they should have mentioned the date. |

My first and so far only purchase on Molotok (our Russian ebay analogue) was a coin listed as (translated from original Russian) "USA 1 cent 1890(?)". The actual coin? A really worn (and dateless, and probably harshly cleaned, but hey) Matron Head large cent  The Buy It Now price? Just over three bucks (of which half was postage). ...And that's the story of how my 1841 Petite Head stopped being the only large cent in my collection - though I doubt anyone still remembers when I promised to tell that way back in March  |

Liberty Half Dollar Coins or Quote:
Liberty One Dollar Coins The listings don't say what they really are: Kennedy half dollar or Eisenhower dollar. |
