Do these CC's look unnaturally alike in this auction? The buy it now price was $570 or something close to that. The 93-CC alone is worth more than that if it isn't fake or cleaned. They smell funny to me.

It appears they all have been harshly cleaned. In his description he says they are XF details which means if you bid and win these then there is a very good chance ebay will side with him on a not as described claim.

He says he is not a coin expert but he does know enough to cover his butt by stating they are details coins (Cleaned) so he knows how to play the system. Definitely buyer beware here.

The dates look funny to me. Maybe it's the cleaning or the lighting.

I am very suspicious when I see a seller offering coins that look so alike. No way I would bid on them.

Especially with a seller who does not allow returns. I would pass on this auction.

The 1893-CC is a definite fake. I can't be 100% sure about the other three but I have definite questions about their authenticity.

All three CC dollars appear to be from the same rev die.
