I don't think there is anything wrong, if one reads the ENTIRE listing. However, this seller is banking, I think, on the many people who don't read the entire listing and/or don't know the metric system. At 11 mm in diameter, this coin has maybe 0.067 oz of gold (at $800/oz, that's bullion value of ~$54. 67.95 + 9.74 sh =$77.69, a 30% premium above gold spot price. A bit pricey.

It needs to have "copy" or "replica" in the title and does not. It's also in the wrong category, there's a category for copies and replica.

I hate it and I think it's fraudulent to post that title with what is being offered is it not? Not to mention 11mm is under half an inch. What is that, like 3CN size?

Hopefully scumbuster comes along and tells us his opinion. Haven't seen him for a while now. Either I'm missing his recent posts, or he's slacking off somewhere.

To answer the question HABIB, I don't think it's you. If I had the time, I'd report him, but I need to log off now.

Oh, I've reported every time the seller lists one of these. I have reported at least ten of them using every form imaginable.

I have also tried to get the seller to tell me what the 'coin' weighs, but he hasn't answered one of my 300 messages.

If you have a minute please use scumbuster's link to report this, maybe ebay needs more than just me to report this item in order to do anything.

Thanks!

I'm going to report it again now.

How long goes it usually take for ebay to remove and item that is kinda fraudulent? I am actually a little surprised that the item is still available. I hate seeing stuff like this.
