Yeah, uh, no. And btw the term is "circulated" not "used"

I really like how that one former 2008 cent has been on ebay already since August 20, 2012. That's over 4 years, and still nobody wants to buy this 'very rare' coin...

"This circulation coins are silver-plated
This is not a silver"

"Very important Real foto"

A real photo does not make a good coin

This one perplexed me not only for the $90 price tag, but because I didn't know what the "Incodwe Trust" was. I thought maybe this person was selling off the estate of the Incodwe family. Then I realized it was "In God We Trust"!

Wow, that seller really believes the motto reads "INCODWE." Has he never looked at a Washington quarter before?

If memory serves, there is actually a famous error/variety where the G in GOD was partially filled, making it look like a C.

That coin isn't the one, however.

Not only is his reading bad, his grammar is bad. He said that the item condition is "unknow" instead of unknown.

This thread would be more fun for those that read it before the links are dead (either due to ebay removing the listing, or after time the links go dead) if a short description of what is funny and/or photos were uploaded with the original post about a "worst coin".

why are people always "reserving the right" to do this or that? is it an attempt to sound legal-eze in case somebody gets mad that an item got sold beforehand?

personally, I think if you list or buy on ebay, you reserve the right to get a free ticket to the moon... that is about how much validity that term means to me.

if you list the coin or car or whatever on ebay, you got no rights as far as I am concerned about "pulling" the coin.

why say anything? if you get a price in the meantime just pull the listing.

I reserve the right to change my comments, depending on what the reaction to them are.

I did a careful check on the constitution and about 14 penal code state books on this one... you ain't got the "right" to do jack, one way or another.

nevertheless, I reserve the right to admit I could be wrong and I reserve the right to think that you are wrong if you do not agree with me.

@Finn235: this reminds me quite a bit of the streets in the center of Adelaide. Also a lot of coins mounted in concrete there. When I saw that for the first time, my first reaction was like jbuck's and my second reaction was to find a tool shop and find a proper jackhammer.
