GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1849 Posts	Posted 09/26/2014 12:59 am Recently sold on ebay as an 1822 25/50 variety. I am seeing no trace of an under type. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ultra-RARE-...047675.l2557 What do you guys think? Report this Post to the Staff

On the real 25/50, the E and I are quite notably left of the corresponding D and T, and even angled images like these make it clear this isn't the case. Don't even need to look st 25C. Somebody just threw $3000 out the window. I messaged the seller with a link to this thread. Hopefully he will note this and do the right thing. Report this Post to the Staff
tkbslc Pillar of the Community United States 1158 Posts	Posted 09/26/2014 2:12 pm It seems pretty obvious that you shouldn't buy expensive raw coins on ebay. This seller could have likely made an extra $2-5k if it was verified and graded. So why did they choose not to? Edited by tkbslc 09/26/2014 2:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff

TreasHunt Pillar of the Community United States 2540 Posts	Posted 09/29/2014 09:00 am sorry, but no pity any longer. If someone wants to spend $2900 and not do their homework, then -- well, they got a mis-attributed coin Study, research, buy the book first! Report this Post to the Staff
