Poor dime! Some sellers just use terms like 'Proof' without knowing what they mean!

Here's another silly British one, with appalling photos of the UK's most common and valueless 50p! Strangely, this 'seller' has actually bought quite a few coins from sensible e-bay sellers (including one from me) so you'd think they would know better!

This same seller also has a lovely "Proof" 1937 Mercury dime for only $650. It comes with magnificent wear and beautiful hairlines.

An 1819 "Swiss Cheese" Capped Bust half dollar.

Or perhaps it was used for target practice.

To paraphrase Obi-Wan Kenobi .... "those holes, too accurate for target practice. Only a drill bit could be so precise."

That poor half dollar. Those holes look pretty new, too. What a shame.

I bet the "swiss cheese" was someone with a new punch set practicing to make coin rings.

Vastly over-graded and overpriced, but a bargain compared with some of the British 1971 1p and 2p coins and Beatrix Potter 50p's listed for hundreds of pounds!
