Sorry, I messed up the editing a little. Here's the initial post from coppernickeldaddy:

Just asked the following Question
'Might one inquire as to how you ascertained that the composition of said Five Cent Piece (Nickel) is silver?
It is not uncommon for Jefferson nickels to tone black. In fact there is a specific variety knick named 'Black Beauty' before I invest my children's college funds in this item I want to be sure its the real thing. Should I send said item to a reputable third part grading service and it is returned with a claim that it not in-fact a rare silver Nickel will you issue a complete refund ?

Regards
Nohope587'

I wonder if I will get a response

His response:

quote:
The person that I am looking for to buy this coin is one that will be sent by the lord to buy it, he will know that it is the one he is to buy, because he has been told to buy it by the Lord. It does'nt matter what the world thinks about it, or what an individual thinks about it, it is the relationship with the Lord that is important, and faith in what he has said. You will know if you are to buy it, you won't need to have it graded if it is yours to buy. By all means don't spend money that you don't have, it is like tithing because you feel that you have to, if you feel that you have to then it is no good, you tithe because you love the Lord with all of your heart, this is what the person feels when they buy this. To everyone else it will seem like a joke to them, they will not receive the importance of this. As Jesus said several times in the Bible " Those that have ears to hear let them hear" If your heart is not open to the Lord you will not hear him. Thank you for your response, have a great day.
God Bless,
Richie

'No, you can have it graded at your expense. The person that I am looking for to buy this coin is one that will be sent by the lord to buy it, he will know that it is the one he is to buy, because he has been told to buy it by the Lord.

Maybe if he added that the coin cries tears, he would get more bids.

Everyone, and I mean everyone, should be able to see the numerous red flags in this listing. Having said that, this topic is remaining here as proof that some will go to any length to try to make money on some "believers". This will not turn into a theological debate, nor does it need to turn into a pigpile on this seller.

Coppernickeldaddy has done his due diligence and alerted the members here to yet another scammer, and we are grateful for that. If you choose to take it a step further and send pm's to this seller, understandable, but I think we now have enough responses from this seller already to know that it is a futile effort.

It got re-listed and is about to end for the second time reserve not met.
I have to ask how ebay would allow such an auction I reported it stating no silver nickels were minted in 1959 but they let it pass..
