This guy is selling a regular 2010 toonie for $25. Lucky? I don't know, but he'll be lucky if it sells!

NOTE: This is NOT my ad, I am NOT promoting the ad. I only posted this to show everyone the overpriced coin.

Your right OddCoins, it is a lucky toonie (for him)...You know that there will be some one out there that will buy anything...A few years ago some one bid over $1.00 for an empty can of pop on ebay.

He may have sprinkled some magic dust on it or put some voodoo hex on the coin to bring good luck to people. NOT!

Who ever buys it for that price and thinks they will get good luck from it, deserves to have it.

You think maybe the seller has some sales background? OR he might be a leprechaun?

You can't blame him for trying!

I emailed him, and he said it's brought him good luck over the years and it's time to pay it forward.
To me, "paying it forward" isn't charging 12 times the face value for a coin you just found in your pocket change.
At least he's nice, unlike you-know-who...

Paying it forward would be for him to give it away.

He would do better on ebay, if he said this:

"I HAVE A REGULAR ORDINARY 2010 TOONIE!!11 IT IS THE GREATEST COIN IN THE WORLD GAURANTEED. THIS COIN IS CERTIFIED MS70 BY THE SGS STAR GRADING SERVICE. NO RETURNS DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF TAMPERING. AUCTION STARTS AT $25 NO RESERVE!"

If you see that on ebay anytime soon, you'll know what happened.
