Seller info

This scares me, the first transaction the seller has ever had is this coin? I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole!.... but that's just my humble opinion.

It's definitely a forgery. The date is a dead giveaway. Here's a comparison of the seller's coin with the date of a real one below it...  Look closely at the 1 and 4 in the date. They are not even close. Then add in the fact that the seller is from Hong Kong. I've reported it. |

And it's described as "Year 1894 Old US One Dollar Eagle Coin."

"Please see the picture, the picture is take from the coin." Yeah, buddy. I didn't need to look at the photo - one glance at his feedback was enough for me. Get 'im off ebay, quick! Good job, cwb8539! |

It looks like the seller discovered that the coin was counterfeit because it has been removed.

I don't remember the name but it sure looks like the same style of add to the T, just a different coin of course.

I also reported redcfw4 yesterday, "no longer a member now" it is a pain you have to put in each item number. Yes this seller from Hong Kong bgtypw2 is either the same guy or part of a ring, the coins look the same as the ones from redcfw4 his wording is also the same, and this guys feedback is a dead give away. Who knows how many more of these Hong Kong sellers are out there just flooding the market with coins buyers actually think are real. I reported all of bgtypw2 items to ebay also, hopefully ebay will get on it faster, because some have already been sold. I told them they should shut down ALL Hong Kong coin sellers we all know they are fakes and they are going to ruin coin collecting. I am already afraid to bid on any coins now unless they are graded for fear I will just be buying a fake that is already here, and you know there are MANY... If you see any others from Hong Kong put them up, I will report them as should others... -Hank Edited by tartop
