I believe the seller mistyped the date in the title BUT he lost any credibility when he listed it as a "gold" dollar

And now the fight starts. I'm sure heck be opening a buyer protection case to try and get out of the sale while the seller is obviously trying to get away with that absurd price for that coin

The sad thing is I see at least 6 different bidders. I really hate ebay sometimes. When I put nice stuff on there I take a loss. When fools like this sell they make a killing.

Wow... I'm amazed they didn't even look at the second picture and notice that it said "1979" on it...
As for the other part, I'm amazed there aren't more people selling exotic brass coinage as solid gold. There's clearly a market for it.

When I saw the links title I thought I was sent to the wrong sale. How does one confuse a 1779 gold coin with a 1979 not so gold coin? I knew Susan B. was old but I didn't know she was that old.

I don't see why it is an ebay problem....It served a purpose for two of society's' clueless to meet Kinda like blaming your computer because things are spelled wrong in your emails.....
