I don't often do this but this is bordering on ridiculous.
Check out these listings on ebay from wild-reck. Can't imagine anyone being so stupid for listing this rubbish. Seems to be a flood of fake 1930 pennies on ebay and seems a waste of time reporting them.

Link please. If it's counterfeit, put your post in the ebay reporting thread.

No wonder buyers are leaving ebay when they allow this sort of thing.

Yes it seems to be a waste of time reporting.
I reckon reports just go straight into the bin.

Most will slip in words such as 'fantasy' or 'filler coin' but this seller's description reads 'Coin is as pictured and has not been authenticated' https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1930-au...AOSwvD5Z-Ona

Even goes to the trouble of presenting it nicely!

Looks like he has been 'run out of town'. No doubt to return under a different id. Well done ebay!!

Not sure why the above link doesn't work ... tried again but same result? Checked and it's still listed!
If you search on ebay for 1930 austalian penny it is the first listing.
