Zoiks! Bad pictures. Yeesh.
I wouldn't touch it with a 39.5' poll.

Anyone bidding that kind of money with those kind of photos of a raw example of one of the most commonly forged U.S. coins - well, what else is there to say?

Even with those super lousy pictures I am not feeling the love. Stay away, stay far, far away. This is a coin that should only be bought certified by 99% of collectors. Best Regards,  George |

Definitely stay away. I can't believe this has gone so high without at least good photos. Either some shills are bidding it up or there's a lot of suckers out there.

In the early days of ebay, I could get good deals since many sellers either could not post decent pictures or had no pictures. In today's world for a coin that if authentic would be high value, crappy pictures are just a total red flag. Plus, there is a reason this is not in a TPG holder. Zero feedback doesn't help, but we all had that at one time. |

I suspect the seller's ebay account will be quickly deleted. |

He has to sell that suspicious 1909s v.d.b. first.

Very suspicious. But the 1909 s vdb looks like it might be real. If it's a fake, it's a good fake.

Oh yeah, also I noticed he doesn't take returns.
I agree, stay far, far away...

the buyer's account looks like a hijacked account.
I think the sale was rigged.

I do due diligence on a $40 coin, and these guys throw 5k at the wind. Wow!
