Take a look at the seller's 1932-D and 1932-S Washington quarters, too. Those pics need to be saved as well. The seller's 1921-D Merc pic is so small it isn't identifiable and isn't worth saving.

So was this entire coin faked or did they just add a D to a Philly 1914?

Absolutely no surprise there, unfortunately ebay has not only been flooded with fakes, worst part is when you try to help and report it they brush it off and claim they looked into it.... This happened a couple of weeks ago when I reported a fake error and got the same respond from ebay: Thanks again for reporting the listing(s) you found. What happened:
We looked into your report and didn't find the listing to be in violation of our policy.( obviously ebay policy allows FAKE ITEMS) This determination was made by a customer service agent.

when you reported it, did you also mention that it also too small to be real cent? this one measures at 18 mm BVS 19  (using the supplied metric ruler that is in the same image.)

I wonder if the seller knows their coins are fake and is trying to hide it with bad pictures.
