Anyone else see what's wrong with this auction?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-1917-1...em54244c7b2d

One pic shows a dateless coin and the second pic shows it tooled into a 1921.

The coin has either been tooled on the obverse after the first picture was taken or it has been "digitally" tooled with some photoshopping but why bother.

Who knows what you would end up with.

No, more like photoshoped by giving a very light overlay of a 1921 quarter. Look at the changes in the rim, shield, breastplate, face, and drapery. Very highly deceitful.

I do see the last digit in the first pic is a one.

Augh. Who thinks anyone is in the market for junk like this...

I agree with typecoin. It does look like an overlay done in photoshop to me.
