Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10601 Posts	Posted 09/05/2025 02:09 am Has anybody else noticed how fake commemorative halves have flooded ebay lately? Mostly from China or California. The auction pictures are mostly real coins but then they have ridiculously low BIN prices. 1934 P Boone Commemorative Silver Half Dollar NGC MS65 Toned Total Mintage - US $49.99 or Best Offer Located in: HK, China ebay item number:365807291680 Report this Post to the Staff
HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25979 Posts	Posted 09/05/2025 09:31 am You're right, Marve - they're the "in thing", it seems. For that one, no pictures of the slab and more than 10 available. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7656 Posts	Posted 09/05/2025 09:58 am Yeah, it's been awful for months. The scarier thing is that ebay knows it's a problem and doesn't desire to do anything about it. It would be better if "Buyers" could block listings from Sellers in certain countries, (like China) where this junk is coming from. Report this Post to the Staff

You can select US sellers only as a search option. But that doesn't help with the junk that has already been imported.

Dearborn Moderator United States 99764 Posts	Posted 09/05/2025 12:53 pm That is a shame that ebay allows this type of crap now.. But yes, blocking out China would be a great start.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19301 Posts	Posted 09/05/2025 2:32 pm I know this isn't terribly helpful, but when purchasing commemoratives, I only conduct business at reputable coin shows and coin shops where I can examine pieces in-hand. This practice isn't always convenient or timely, but I feel better about the outcomes. Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25979 Posts	Posted 09/08/2025 11:58 pm I was on Etsy today for the first time looking at a search result. As a lark, I typed "coin" in the search box.
