He has 13 coins for auction - can you narrow it down to which one (s) you are wondering about?

All of them have the same "look". Possibly all improperly stored in the same hoard in similar conditions or possibly fakes. What do you think. 1841 Seated Liberty Half 3227916858121832 Capped Bust Half 322791601847 |

tough to tell from small pics. surfaces look corroded but the devices look great. even though he does not offer returns, I think you can get your money back if they are fake. if they are details and damaged, that would be a bigger risk. seller seems to have a lot of feedback and all positive so I dont think theyll be fake. good luck.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

I would not buy from seller as the photos are poor and slightly out of focus, and seller does not offer returns. The 41 seated half at minimum has ED. The 32 bust half has rim damage.

and seller does not offer returns. Really the sellers can say that all they want - eBay/PayPal initiates refunds all the time even if the seller doesn't. |

Look at the other coins he's selling. A bunch of fake garbage with hopes that no one notices. Bad stuff.

Time to add this seller to the "Counterfeit coins" forum

I don't see enough details in those images to be sure either way.

Coins are out of focus, you can tell something is wrong. They are at LEAST damaged, but can't see well enough to determine if they are fakes. And if you can't tell for sure I would not add the seller to the counterfeit coins forum.
