Even if that 1924 was MS66 I still couldn't bring myself to place a bid on it.

Does ebay even check this stuff? Guess not. This one is extremely blatant. Geez.

I'm not sure this one will sell at that price (at least I would hope not), but I often wonder if guys like this actually do end up selling some of this stuff at those ridiculous prices. I would think that it must pay off here and there or they wouldn't do it.

What a shame!

Perhaps he meant to add a decimal after the 5? I'm trying to stay optimistic. :p

Why does everyone assume this guy is a crook?

This is his first ebay sale, so we must assume the name is an alt, right?

Did you ever think that maybe this is just some smoo who watched Pawn Stars or Beverly Hills Pawn and saw some old coin bought for crazy money so he is sure that his 'old' coin is worth similar money.

I have dealt with several people who are sure their colection of dateless Buffs and circulated wheat cents and 1921 Morgan are worth millions. Perhaps this guy was sure the dealer he went to was just trying to rip him off so he is selling it on ebay.

I also supposeyou have never seen an auction where they posted the wrong image?

I mean it seems to be a forgone conclusion, you have an auction with something wrong in it the seller MUST be a crook.
