It's a fake all right, I'm not sure if it is the same one as the Ali-express coin, but they came off the same model. (relief on the ebay coin seems lower especially on the horses neck.

Just sent a nice note to the seller asking for, and explaining why, they should end the auction. I would hate to see someone lose $200 on this one. We shall see....

If you get a response from the seller, be sure to scroll to the bottom. It'll probably start off with a few pages of exclamation points.

thanks for confirming my suspicions.when I saw it'd hit 200 bucks I figured someone must think its real and if they do they must think its near mintstate!big ouch on the way if they don't figure it out

This one irks me. It is now up to $600. No response from the seller to my email.....no response from the bay.....I must admit, typically I take the caveat emptor position but....I do not know....this one bugs me. At least no family member will be stuck with this one..... AND it has happened before....Rays are all wrong.... http://www.ebay.com/itm/1787-Fugio-...047675.l2557

I'm a total n00b with colonials, but even I can see the details are all wrong! 10 minutes of study would save you $$$

No response from the seller because he's unethical. So many on ebay unfortunately. Devices all wrong for a genuine coin. The cartoonish obverse is hilarious.

No way to contact the buyer until Feedback has been left - only then will you know his identity - and it's risking your ebay account. You never know if the buyer is a shill and will have you whacked for inappropriate outside contact. ebay has become a killing ground.
