I wrote to the seller and told him and exactly how to tell it's counterfeit but he didn't write back and somebody bid. Too bad. 520 pounds Report this Post to the Staff

swamperbob Pillar of the Community United States 5362 Posts	Posted 06/26/2014 11:07 pm Hi Gordon - Nice to see you here. I wrote to the seller asking if I could have permission to use the photos of his coin to replace the Aa version that we have in the book. His coin is very high grade with only a few plate breaks all of which are small. But as you point out the entire design is incorrect. rooneydog Don't hold your breath waiting for ebay to do anything. They have abandoned the Community Watch feature the EMRs and are using people with NO expertise to review auctions. I was also wondering why you posted the 1794 Potosi 8R? It is not a matching variety. Do you believe the coin is a counterfeit? Report this Post to the Staff
