Why use "stock photos" for each coin? Why no show the slab for the second coin?

How can that 1943 be graded as MS63 when several parts of the legends seem to be worn out?

Also, in the listing details, he writes AU-58 and two paragraphs down he writes MS-63. What gives?

And what's up with the question by Claude? What the frak(excuse my Kobolian) is he asking?

Plus, who in their right mind would bid four figures from a seller with zero feedback?

A reason to run.

If it was genuine, your looking at a 100K coin.

Oh, and that other coin the person is selling, the 1922 no D.... they just copied the same pictures from the other guy who's selling that coin on ebay. Funny how they haven't been banned yet..

It's the same person with a feedback of 495 who is bidding it up. Is there really a person that has a spare $85,000 to spend on questionable items? Lots of bids with zero or one feedback.

I was going to bid on this, but then I saw the hefty $10 shipping charge and backed out.

If I had to guess, every single bidder involved in the auction of both of these coins (at least once the price got serious) are in league with the fraudster.
