marcus21_69 New Member Canada 46 Posts	Posted 02/01/2017 11:12 am I was on "Letgo"(a Kijiji style app) and a guy was selling a 1980 voyageur silver dollar for $200! Asked him why he's asking so much...replied with "it's diamond cut...only made 3....look it up". Googled it...nothing.....anyone hear of this? I'm calling bull. Report this Post to the Staff

unruhjonny Pillar of the Community Canada 514 Posts	Posted 02/01/2017 11:23 am sounds to me like a scheisster looking to dupe someone out of $200. Report this Post to the Staff
oldmike Pillar of the Community Canada 891 Posts	Posted 02/01/2017 11:25 am He is probably referring to a coin in a bezel for jewellery or a buckle, that are sometimes called Diamond Cut Report this Post to the Staff
oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5239 Posts	Posted 02/01/2017 11:27 am Any of us could get a 1980 dollar, a diamond, and cut the dollar, since diamond is so much harder. So I guess that since he only cut 3, you better get it now before he runs out. Report this Post to the Staff

marcus21_69 New Member Canada 46 Posts	Posted 02/01/2017 11:37 am @DBM I saw that online as well....this was just a plain coin....looked like it was circulated (tons of scuffs and scratches). I asked him if he sold it for asking said "yes". His profile shows no sales but has 5 posting selling silver dollars for $200 each. Report this Post to the Staff
DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9862 Posts	Posted 02/01/2017 12:37 pm Wow! A great gig if you can get it. I've got about 40 silver dollars I wouldn't mind selling at that price. I'll just take my wife's ring, scratch 'em and ....... Can you provide any pics or links? "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9862 Posts	Posted 02/01/2017 3:06 pm The diamond cutting changes the polar bear to a canoe of course. The Northern lights didn't have to be cut, just rearranged.
