the second looks real to me, I may be wrong but it must look real to others also to be up to over 200 bucks. keydatecoins ususlly has some nice coins he is selling in ebay and this one is just another example of a nice one in my opinion. Nothing jumps out and says fake to me maybe you or someone else can see something I am missing and if so please let me know but it sure looks real to me. here is the one I have in my dansco album

no, that seller is notorious for ending the auction if the price isn't up to what he thinks the item is worth. I usually have a few of his coins in my watched list because he has some nice coins but he does that allot before the last few hours if the item hasn't reached a price he feels the coin is worth, and I mean ALLOT!

I agree, but I also know why he doesn't put a reserve on his items, most people will not even bother to bid on an item that has a reserve so you will definately lose bids that way. I would just put a BIN on it and say heck with it, he has a ebay store so he can probably let his BIN items sit there for like 30 days
