I see there is a 1966 sm bead coin dollar for sale on ebay @ $2K but no bids yet? If this is such a scarce coin curious why no bids?

Because it is not a small beads dollar. The I in REGINA is not pointing directly to a denticle.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website

Not the only incorrect listing from this seller check out the so called 1955 NSF one cent that has six bidders in trouble!

This is one of those where it's best to stick with TPG'd examples only. Like the 1921 5c.

Someone should contact the seller of the 1966 dollar and tell him his error.

54dollarcoin......I just noticed the 1955 1c you mention above, is from the same seller!!
This seller has got to be one of two choices.... either the dumbest coin collector around or one of the most unethical ones.

Looks like a small beads dollar to me. The I in regina points to the bead and the A is between the beads.I could be wrong as well.

I certainly don't see the 'I' lining up with the beads. And the 'A' looks like it lines up. Actual seller's picture (enhanced and magnified).

Looking at that photo and counting 149 beads as others on ebay are selling them for 20 bucks, you are correct.

I checked his 1955 cent and his 1965 pointed 5 and they are not correct as well.

I did inflorm the seller that there is doubt about the coin but his reply was that the beads on the reverse were larger than than the ones on the obverse therefore it is a small bead. I thought it strange that if he was that certain why he did not offer a return on it?
