Ebay Scams

I know that I used to get calls from a local bank who got too many customer wrapped penny rolls. I could get a pile of common wheats out of them at face value. I wouldn't even pay 4 cents a piece for common wheats, at most 3 cents but would probably bid face value for them plus the value of the ends. When common wheats are part of any lot, I tend to ignore them and am after something else. They go into my Whitman book if I need them or get tossed in a coffee can with my roll finds.

I can't blame people for falling for "unsearched rolls" hoping to score big. Look at this lot of IHC I just bought. I have no clue what dates are in this lot and no clue about the condition of most of them although I know they are all brown so it is unlikely they were harshly cleaned. The seller claims there are coins from the 1880s, 90s and 1900s and possibly older but he couldn't tell because his eyesight isn't good. My eyesight is good and I have a a jeweler's loupe. I always fall for the bad picture and sometimes it works well but a couple times the coins were junk.
