Looks like this ebay seller thinks that they are on to something here. Have a look at their other item that is up for auction ... no mucking around with this time with a Starting Bid of only $14,500.00! Must have got a punch set for his/her birthday!

Yes I would say this just some fake bidding but this aleast not fake coinage. Note there are people wanting a few coins maybe to complete their PMD set, personally not buying but technical a law against this but that more to stop industrial melting of coins.

Surely a 7 would fetch a higher price than a 6.

This topic came up a while ago. I don't think the seller is marking the coins. It was apparently commonly done by vending and gaming machine technicians so they could identify how many coins were inserted during the testing of the machine. Repairs were often done during operating hours with coins already in the cash hopper from customers.

As you say common practice for them to be marked, and common to find in circulation. Bidding is currently at $23.50.  Hurry, only an hour to go!!

hay you think this is crazy you should have look into digit tokens and NFT. if people really want to pay for these coins then go right ahead I'm not stopping them  but if I'm a collector ill definitely be  when you show it to me.
