Over 100 sold! Seems to be against ebay rules isn't it?

They do say it is a "clone" in the description Coop: "Please note: 1:1 high-quality clone, for learning and collection, please do not buy if you mind"

Doesn't matter what he called it, it's counterfeit money.

If examined in hand, should only be slightly deceiving
Harder to detect as fake from pictures only, but some basic testing should readily confirm as such.
A form of laundering fake coins.

I would be happy to buy from a dealers junk box, for a dollar or so, and add to my 'black' collection, for my own education,
but definitely not via ebay.

Nevertheless,
I can understand why so many of them were sold. They can be dishonestly re sold as genuine, to unsuspecting inexperienced collectors for a considerable profit.
