Either way it sold for more bucks than the Allegheny forest boasts. http://www.ebay.com/itm/US-Gold-Dol...em19d9bc7239 Edited by Raligard 03/15/2013 3:37 pm Report this Post to the Staff

basebal21 Bedrock of the Community 13014 Posts	Posted 03/15/2013 3:49 pm Im going to guess a combination of bad lighting and toning Report this Post to the Staff
xZACKx Pillar of the Community United States 648 Posts	Posted 03/15/2013 3:54 pm Wow. Someone is gonna be disappointed when they receive that. Looks like all bad lighting and toning like Basebal said. The left rim on each picture shows the silver color. Why would someone think a Susan B. Anthony dollar is one of the Gold Eagles...

xZACKx Pillar of the Community United States 648 Posts	Posted 03/15/2013 4:32 pm Look at the sellers other items. I believe they think that Sacagawea dollars and Presidential dollars are actually gold.. Report this Post to the Staff
bpoc1 Rest in Peace United States 4078 Posts	Posted 03/15/2013 4:41 pm There is according to "Strike it Rich with pocket change " 3rd addition a 1999-P Susan B accidentally struck on blank coin intended for use on the 2000 Sacagawea dollar. Maybe they got the date wrong? Or just "Wishing and Hoping........." Gold LOL. Report this Post to the Staff

Yeah, when I looked it all over I figured he really wasn't aware of what he was selling, but it seems at least 2 people got into a pretty extensive bid war that didn't know what they were buying either.

MrMorgan Valued Member United States 161 Posts	Posted 03/15/2013 6:01 pm Wait...The SBA's aren't made of gold? I can't believe it sold for $61. ebay amazes me every time I log on. You would think that online auctions would bring lower prices but it has some of the highest prices on the internet. Report this Post to the Staff

jgfindring Rest in Peace United States 1380 Posts	Posted 03/16/2013 09:35 am Wow- item has negative feedback already! Report this Post to the Staff
Foxwoods Man Pillar of the Community United States 4901 Posts	Posted 03/16/2013 12:54 pm Feedback: Quote: Beware scammer! Seller listed a 1979 coin as 1779, then refused to cancel sale. Seems both sides are idiots...buyer for bidding $61 for a $1 coin and the seller, well both for being himself AND refusing to cancel the sale. So the buyer will get the coin, return it, and it is just a waste of time for both of the clueless clan (it DID say 1979 in the description)...

Raligard Valued Member United States 79 Posts	Posted 03/16/2013 1:18 pm LOL! I didn't even notice the "1779" in the description. Did the bidder not even glance at the photographs? While the color may be misleading, the date on the coin is clearly visible. Report this Post to the Staff
