That's the one from the video - great sleuthing, CalzoneManiac! At least the seller is honest about what it is.

it's a fairly common fantasy item. One only has to look up "1851 dollar" in the CCF search and you will be treated to dozens of posts about it.

Oh dear. I looked through what one 40 Thieves store has for sale and I'm stunned. This is just the first page of their Mexico listing, and they have one for just about every country you can think of.

I understand, but knowledge is power. to know how thieves operate & what they offer is worth studying ... know your enemy ... I'm not interested in buying or promoting their junk, just want to have pics to compare ... BTW...by merely mentioning "that site", as has been done multitudinous times here, you have brought attention ... please share the knowledge ...

All of these idiotic asking prices got me to thinking (which is usually a bad thing). Doesn't ebay have a limit on asking prices for non-certified coins?

The ones that are exactly $2,500, ebay probably won't remove. Their policy used to say "can't be over $2,500". Now it says "must be under $2,500". They will probably give the seller some leeway over $1. 285646605789 is for multiple coins, so the price per coin is under $2,500. Did you use the "report this listing" link on each listing?
