I found this auction on ebay and can't seem to find a specific reason why this could be a fake. Just the spidey senses telling me. Any thoughts?

What struck me was the consistent appearance of all three four --and the lack of toning for silver coins that old.

When something looks too good to be true it usually is. Even though this coin is available in high grades - 4 that appear to come from the same original roll is hard to believe.

Bid as if they were counterfeit or you will be disappointed.

All 4 have the same amount of wear in the same places exactly, looks bogus to me.
