Report them. I don't think ebay allows the sale of replicas anymore, but even if they do these don't say replica or copy on the coin itself.

I think I'd be hesitant to buy any of their jewellery. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

Ha, clever idea listing the one as a 'paperweight'... I guess you could probably list anything as that and not technically be wrong...

Replicas are prohibited by ebay rule; good on the seller for being honest but he's about to learn it doesn't matter. He still can't list them.

I reported it as well and just received this confirmation. I listed ALL the numbers as well as pointing out it was in the wrong category. jkol2369, good eye for catching this! Quote:Thanks for reporting these listings to us. I reviewed these listings and confirmed that they violated our Selling Currency policy. As a result, I removed the listings and took appropriate action on the account(s). I did not see any other active listings for fake coins. Again, thank you for your report. We appreciate your help in keeping ebay a safe and reputable forum to conduct business. Sincerely,

its crazy sellers like this get away with selling replica coins. And we are a honest seller being accused of selling 2012 counterfeit pennies for crying out loud... Why would anybody in their right mind counterfeit a 2012 penny when over 200 million were minted?

Why would anybody in their right mind counterfeit a 2012 penny when over 400 million were minted? True. Why would anyone make a 2012 penny. Now a 2012 Cent, that's different. If people made those, I'd buy one.   Just kidding. So many people make that fuss about a Cent or Penny.

ebay no longer allows the sale of replicas. Even when they did they had to be stamped replica/copy. Quote:Hello lincolnguy, Thanks for reporting these listings to us.
I reviewed these listings and confirmed that they violated our Selling Currency policy. As a result, I removed the listings. We no longer allow replica coins even if they are stamped with COPY.
Again, thank you for your report. We appreciate your help in keeping ebay a safe and reputable forum to conduct business.
