Check the price, it's for a 10mm replica mini coin!
Somebody is not going to be happy paying over $200.00 for this trade fake.

My guess is the pictures being used are actual coins and the minis are far from that detail. There's going to be a lot of disappointed people...

[Item description pasted below] This auction is for an uncirculated mini silver coin 1873 Trade dollar Silver It's very beautiful , collectible, and a treasure of coin All of my coins/items are guaranteed 100% SATISFACTION ! Weight: 0.60 gram (a coin) Composition: SILVER Size: 10 mm diameter Quantity: 1 Each of these coins measure 10 MM in size. ----------------------------------------------- This shows how ignorant people can be as the seller clearly lists the size and weight, and IMO the only way to educate those bidding would be to show a picture of his silver mini-copy next to a genuine coin. Below is a good example on why this seller should show the actual size of his mini copy. If I just posted a brief description of some genuine gold fanams from India, along with the first photo only, most bidders would not know the size of these coins, where-as the second photo shows the exact size when viewing this coin next to a Lincoln Cent.   |

Listing these minis in the actual coin category should not be allowed either. I'll bet dollars to doughnuts the people bidding think these are the real deal.

I don't spend $5 on a coin without reading the listing all the way through. How could you spend $300 without even reading what you are bidding on. People these days. I think the buyers should learn a tough lesson on this one. The description clearly states they are mini coins.
