It seems like eBay is awash in counterfeit Morgan dollars, but counterfeit pattern dollars do not show up as often.
However, here is one:
I sent the seller a message - no response, yet.

Looks slightly different than the usual Chinese counterfeits that I've seen. Could just be the photos though.

Wow! That's a really crude counterfeit.
Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

I'll say - it looks like someone polished the heck out of the fields/legends/rims to give it that "DMPL" look. I had not seen this item - I feel bad for the buyer!
The buyer may also think they are getting an NGC graded coin. :'(
Looks like that seller is infringing on your user name, as well!
Okay I'll bite...what the heck is goloid? And 100 cents are..... Peace Roy

That is just nasty....Listing is gone (removed) now....Thanks for the screenshot....hope no one bought it. Cheers, RickO
Fortunately, it was removed before anyone could buy it. The price was $999, so that would have been a costly mistake.
Sadly someone did buy the morgan.
