And all are selling for over $300.00!

It's too bad the pics are so small you can't tell if thay've been ground down or not...

He's making so much money I don't think he even has all these coins- I think he'll just take all the money and "disappear" off eBay- What does he care if his account with all 15 POS feedbacks gets NARUed?

Maybe he didn't grind off the incused lettering. Instead, he filled with glue and painted?

I don't understand why so many people are taking a chance on buying these coins. Every Numismatic publication issues warnings about buying unslabed coins. I've even read an article in a newspaper about altered Presidential dollars.

Greed, Ignorance, Grandiose, Reside in a cave with Wi-Fi access, or any combination of the three?

They see the slabs go for $450 and then buy unslabbed for $300

You'd think they would show a little bit of common sense seeing all 25 coins all ending at the same time from the same seller... what a dumb seller though- if he hadn't put them all together I wouldn't have noticed and neither would enyone else. Now he is out of thousands of illegal dollars due to me

25 is not that many actually. I happen to know for a fact that people in this (Detroit) area have found more than that. I know of one local dealer here that has 5,000 of the double edge Adams. Several people that I personally know have found 100+ of the smooth dollars as well.
