Quote: As always, check out the seller's other items. Good advice. Between that and the reviews, you can safely avoid most problem sellers.

Wow. I have it here, folks. Forgot that 1909 S VDB. You can have this circulated 1995 Lincoln Cent with absolutely NOTHING special about it at all for the low, low price of 39,000 dollars. https://www.ebay.com/itm/156272763272I really hope there isn't anyone out there actually dumb enough to fall for this.

@Humanist1287 ..."I really hope there isn't anyone out there actually dumb enough to fall for this" ... ...are you implying that this may not be the wisest of investments?...    ... ...I mean, well, some of the zinc coating is still there...

Hmm. I dunno! 39,000 for 1 dollar or less in zinc seems feasible to me. Lol. Or perhaps maybe this 1991 S proof clad Kennedy half dollar for almost 100,000 dollars will tickle your fancy more! https://www.ebay.com/itm/156274601682It does say or "best offer" but come on, really? 99,000 dollars?

Yep! But.. seriously? They also have numerous other coins listed under their listings for outlandish prices. A clad half dollar proof from 1991 for 99,000 dollars. Just for trolling fun, I tried sending an offer yesterday for one dollar. Various other coins. Some SBA dollar coins for thousands of dollars. ...They declined the offer. Lol. It said the seller would be most likely to accept offers around 74,000 dollars. Yeah, sure. You could buy a house for this price. The seller clearly got their 100% feedback from selling their other items I would assume.

ebay rules state that you can't list an ungraded coin for more that $2000. I've reported such listings in the past. Sometimes they're taken down but not always. I don't waste my time with that anymore - the same as reporting counterfeits.

A landscaper does not know their coins.
