I have a feeling these guys think they're bidding on the real thing although it's clearly worded.....

This guy has a ton of these types listed and all of them end pretty close to each other. I have a feeling all hells going to break lose on him when packages start arriving in the mail.

Ive never seen any of the minis but like someone pointed out in the other thread I think hes using pictures of the real ones, I doubt the minis have detail like that

The Antietam is at $365. People sure are dumb, that's all I have to say. Can't even read the TITLE anymore.

Not sure what the problem is here; it is a UNCIRCULATED mini coin.
Rest in Peace

Mini? ugh.

Doesn't it have to have the word 'replica' or something stamped on it?

I thought the bay had a ban on copies. Guess not. Too bad.

The mini copy being sold probably does have "COPY" on it. The problem is that the seller is depicting a genuine Illinois commemorative

It's the same old game of deceptive advertising. It'll never stop. :-P

I would think he's gonna get hammered in about a week. I'm gonna keep an eye on his feedback after the buyers get these.

The seller offers return privileges - I wonder how many will be returned if the "coin" received does not match the image used to sell it?
