Date is 100% wrong and mintmark style is too. Fields are way too clean and no scratches/marks anything in the fields at all.

I really don't like that 1908 S IHC he has in his inventory. The date is really suspicious..

Reported. Hopefully it's taken down before it ends.

Good catch Drew. Looking at past history for ebay seller - frans_coins - shows Chinese copy sales of two 1931-s cents (Nov 30th $66.00 & Nov 18th $56.00) and one 1914-d cent (Nov 15th $400). All three coins have common Chinese copy reverse. All three buyers left positive feedback....

Given that every coin this seller has sold in the past was a Chinese copy, the odds are good that the 1908-s Indian Head penny also up for auction is also a copy/counterfeit

info for 1914-d Lincoln Cent auction ended 11/15/15 for $400

Fairly good auction photos & touching story of a "extremely new" ebay seller selling deceased Dad's stuff.

Jim - I had reported that one last month. It got taken down several times and it appears as if it must have gone up for a BIN or something.
