Dear rere102111,

This is not a real coin. It is a copy of a key date 1877 Indian Head cent.

You need to take this listing down, or I will have to report it to ebay

This is what I got back, at 8:21 today

Dear goldrush58,

How are you going to tell me my coin is fake? I've had it appraised so mind your business.

Just report it and be done. He loses in the end and will just have to deal with it.

Who appraised it, Ronald McDonald?

I was thinking maybe Toy'S R us

It was reported, by another CCF member, this morning, and the listing was ended.
I just saw the Email this evening.

Maybe I should suggest he join a online coin forum to learn more about our hobby ....

That would be a good idea. He desperately needs an education.

Hmm, I think this 1877 Indian Head cent is more convincing:

All of the people telling him that it was fake and that they would report it to ebay must have scared him. ebay didn't pull the listing, he ended it.

If you click on the listing in the first post, you can still see the listing and the message "This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available."

I guess he thought that the Indian Head cent was still a large cent. A very large cent at 3".

In his mind, it's real. He got nervous and ended it because of pressure; mainly from us :-)
