Are those the same coins? So you flip them?

No g048406 points them out because its a type of scam to try and pass them off as undamaged coins. Good job by the way I don't know how you find them.

Seller mentions "details" on the second one, and it seems to be doing much better than the first one , go figure.

Nice research.

Looks like a profitable "enterprise" as the cent cost him $764 and is already beyond $1,000. The dime is closing in on his purchase price if $1,351.

I seem to recall once reading about a heavily toned 1795 half or dollar, graded AU. The buyer cracked it out, dipped and resubmitted it. It came back from PCGS, graded MS-64 or MS-65 and then it sold for over $100,000. Does this one ring a bell to anyone? The buyer was a numismatic author.

Why crack out when you flip?

There's a pretty good indication for a "best offer" here.

It looks to me like, after paying the ebay fees, the seller will just about break even or lose a bit on this pair.
