Absolutely. It has bids, so it's going to sell. Therefore, if he doesn't voluntarily end the listing, it needs to be reported as soon as it ends so ebay can take action.

You sure that's not a proof? I'm seeing reflection in it.

Yes, because Carson City struck no Trade dollars that year. Especially, none with the classic Chinese Fake weakness in the center of the reverse.

Reported. It's a fantasy piece. No such genuine example exists.

Quote: I dont think it's legul Tender like real money but It will make a nice neckless or melt down for the 900 silver? Thanks For looking. And then, he adds... Quote: A E-bayer just wrote and told me this is not a real coin as I said not leagle tender. Thanks E-Bayer Was Susuman not making himself clear? Or is seller craftily feigning ignorance?

The human eye and mind is trained, straight after birth, and for the rest of our lives, to recognize face detail. I do not think Liberty's face on a genuine TD matches this one. C for Yourself.

Yeah, in view of the seller's reply it's time to report him. He had his chance and chose not to take it.

Here is an image of a fake Trade dollar direct from the counterfeiters website, I saved this image and several others for personal reference, last year. Not sure how many other counterfeit companies are punching these out, this may one of many examples.

Hollow stars on the above Trade dollar?  Looks nice but... The seller of the OP "Dollar" has terrible English; Quote:"This was in a storage unit I bought it was in a box with lots of old pennys I don't know anything but what it says. The frount with the lady says in God we trust 1883 The Back says United States Of America E Pluribus Unum on a banner hard to see. 420 grains 900 fine CC Trade dollar. I dont think it's legul Tender like real money but It will make a nice neckless or melt down for the 900 silver? Thanks For looking.

A E-bayer just wrote and told me this is not a real coin as I said not leagle tender. Thanks E-Bayer" I know it's not polite to point, but...
