Not sure what to do with this one, however. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1879-T-1-Tr...em280638a8dc Obvious scam almost, I'm sure of it. Seller joined 8/1, and random username, and tiny pics. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1893-S-1-Mo...em1a04e84102 Also another counterfeit, most likely. Way too high of a grade, new seller with made up randomly smashed keyboard username, and the date area looks suspicious. Also questoning this one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1895-S-Morg...em43e1788c87 The reverse just looks weird to me, the strike and the rim just seem to have something funky going on. Noticing the fields have little to no contact marks too. His other coins all appear to be counterfeits as well, and I'm sure that 1 oz silver eagle is also a counterfeit as well.

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 08/24/2015 09:01 am I've reported all of these. If you are going to take the time to report all of these here, then you should take the time to report them to ebay too. I've seen most of the ones I've reported pulled the same day. I'm sure if we would all report them to ebay we would be doing everyone a service to see these disappear and make it much harder for the sellers of these obvious fakes. A note on the "silver" eagle: If you want a super fast way to tell if these are counterfeit, just look at the flat foot on the base above the date. Every single counterfeit I've seen always has that foot "squished" flat. There are LOTS of other determining factors, but that is the one very quick diagnostic that can be identified at a glance.
