Maybe you are referring to this being a Civil war piece, when that would have some people less numismatic-ally educated to think it is a Civil War token. This is a Civil War era coin though.

Says it is ANACs certified. Yet it is clearly not in a holder?

I see the is a claim that it is an uncirculated coin and that seems wrong.

I would have guessed the way the coin was being held.
I hate seeing coins held in people hands like that for pictures.

I'm pretty sure if the coin is claimed to be certified then a picture of the back and front of the slab is required.

Good eye. I think I missed it and I guess I see it as no more than a copy/paste issue because I would never consider paying certified/uncirculated money for what's pictured. I agree though, accurate descriptions would be nice.

Any ebay sellers of note think this is wrong? I scan the certified listings first mostly for a laugh at the outrageous BIN prices but also to see whats on Auction. These Raw "Certified" listings are becoming a large portion of the certified section. Is it a violation of the rules? Edited by nohope587

nohope, I thought I'd give a little personal perspective on this issue. The new ebay selling layout is annoying and often it will automatically save info or enter it randomly in a bizarre fashion...for example it was trying to put my coins as ANACS certified and carson city mint for no good reason even though I never picked that...probably because I used that a long time ago with some coin. I went through my newly listed walkers and had to remove it, though god knows how many other ones still have it. It did this even AFTER I removed the information block for those options entirely. It's really just a bug I think....if you see this its probably not the sellers fault. Edited by coinguybrian

Alright, well I just found a bunch that were stuck on that, and when I clicked 'revise' on ones that DIDNT have the problem they automatically changed all the settings to 'ANACS' and 'Uncirculated'...ARGH. It keeps putting the grade as MS-67 too. New ebay selling layout is buggy and full of clutter, not seller friendly at all... Edited by coinguybrian

He must have found that Coin in someones Junk Box. He would be best to throw it unto the Beach and let someone find it with a Metal Detector
