I was appalled by this person selling bulk penny's here
the list of coins I received.

5 x corrosion coins all 1938 half penny Australian.
5 x worn badly 1938 half penny's Australian.
Only 3 were a little decent here is 2 of the worst well the corrosion ones were just as bad but 10 x 1938 junk coins lol
Anyway I post 2 coins up and guess how they were damaged.

The Wavvy George coin 1919 half penny Australian

Not shocking at all.
There are all kinds of listings on ebay of people selling
badly damaged or corroded coins. Some even claim
them to be "errors". ebay does not monitor the listings
so it is up to the buyers to be aware of what they are buying.

Caveat emptor.
"You will receive 10 pennies that can vary between 1911-1964 in dates and cover all 3 monarchs.
Coins can vary in grade and quality and you may receive doubles if the same year. Please don't ask for years or grades.
Cheers and good luck!"
You lucked out!

Couldn't agree more. I also collect old photos and albums. There are plenty of dealers selling way overpriced items cluttering up the search results. The same items just get re-listed over and over again. I know of some items that have been re-listing for over a year! They have even had 15-10% discounts and still the items don't sell. Yes, a $ every time they re-listed would clean up the search results real quick.
