I reported these to ebay 4 hours before close, nothing. I have never contacted a seller over their coins but broke that rule on these fakes. Their response was "crickets in the dark" silence. How bout that 1913 S wheeew what a beauty.

Yes, it happens every day!

Hopefully, this Seller is now on ebay's radar screen. Time will tell.

I see the 20 as very suspicious and can even note gouging/scraping under the date. Maybe the original date was scraped off? What about the 26 shows it as fake. I saw the seller listed the items as "polished". They certainly look so.

Seems like people have no regard for educating themselves, and insist on buying fakes

Clearly counterfeits. The 1920-S and 1926-S share the same reverse. Too many buyers see the tiny shiny things and miss the red flags.

As Fortcollins says the 20 S and 26 S are from the same die. (Note the die cut/gouge down to the right from the Buffalo's penis on both coins.) No way the same die would be in use 6 years apart.
