- Not ebay but a Facebook scammer. I called the actual store to let them know. The Facebook page offers deals too good, claims to be in Minnesota but only contacts you during overseas hours, uses way to proper of English and their PayPal email is obviously not connected to the actual store.

- EAC5050 So you bought it with actual dollars? You are a true martyr for the hobby my friend! Did you tell the seller it's fake? He should have donated it for research. I told him a while ago it's probably fake and his reply, word for word ... "Thanks for letting me know"[EAC5050] So you bought it with actual dollars? You are a true martyr for the hobby my friend!

The best of the worse I have slabbed in ICG's educational/ counterfeit slabs for show.[RyanG] of course not a "martyr". These are worth a token amount to me for research and teaching.

- EAC5050 I'm glad you pointed that out because I wasn't thinking of it that way. This is certainly more than just a coin meant to fool someone. Contemporary counterfeits are very interesting and are also some of the coins I collect. I love the store behind some of them.[EAC5050] I'm glad you pointed that out because I wasn't thinking of it that way. This is certainly more than just a coin meant to fool someone.

- EAC5050 Very interesting stuff. I never thought of that possibility. It could also be a damaged D tho. It's unlikely but certainly possible something knocked the left side. The photos are not good enough to know for sure and the seller didn't seem interested to find out.[EAC5050] Very interesting stuff. I never thought of that possibility.

- Not an ebay fake but yet another scam.
Over the weekend I received an offer and message about a toned PCGS PL Morgan I had on ebay. After a counter offer the prospective buyer said he could get it cheaper elsewhere. Wait, what?? I own a toned PCGS Morgan Dollar in 64PL, it is unique so how can you buy it elsewhere. He states it is cheaper on another site so he will go that route. I asked where ( I do not have the coin listed anywhere else) and then I get the site. Wow. A total Russian fraud site. I told the guy it was a scam and he said he might give it a shot since they took credit cards and he would be protected. The site has to exist just to steal credit card info. Wow.

You will find plenty of fake ASEs for under spot, Morgan's, etc. They are all a scam and very, very prevalent. It's embarrassing to the hobby.

- EAC5050 Those are really bad. When you lose a few hundred on a fake, that's a bad day, maybe it messes up your head for a week or so. But 5k+, that could be disaster. That could cause someone to leave the hobby. Its all sickening tho, no matter the price. I pray that eBay hires someone to fix the problem.[EAC5050] Those are really bad.
