JohnWayne007 Pillar of the Community Canada 1186 Posts	Posted 11/28/2020 12:23 pm I am posting this ebay listing because it was brought up in a Facebook group. The seller took photos from a stacks bowers auction that hasn't even happened yet if I understand correctly and is trying to sell what is apparently a "Rare double die" and in the description, the seller is stating it is a 1955 doubled die. Seller is new, Zero feedback, and only 1 listing with numerous misleadings. The ad makes ZERO sense and there are already a few people bidding, sorry if this is the wrong place to post this but I just thought I would pass this on before the bidding got too high for this scammer. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1958-Doubl...AOSww-ZfwK~V ebay item number:143864089189 I understand honest sellers are far and few when it comes to ebay but come on, at least be original and acquire your own photos.

CoinHunter17 Pillar of the Community United States 1008 Posts	Posted 11/29/2020 2:55 pm No, but I can tell you what it had. The seller took images of a genuine 1958 DDO in a slab and then added images of their own 1958 cent that didn't contain the doubling. Report this Post to the Staff
