I got a message last night on my other account telling me this was a Classic Chinese Counterfeit! I just responded I have to LOL at this. Low and behold ebay removed my nice little mercury dime that was listed for $14.99 Buy it Now! I actually talked to someone at ebay just for kicks to get no where. The coin is actually much nicer than my pictures and if was worth grading would be a 65 shot 66 IMHO. Ignore the funny shades that look like PCV as my camera does that now and again. As much trouble as it seems to be to get serious counterfeit crap removed this just urked me to no end!
I blocked this turkey on my main account. If anyone else wishes to do so please PM me and I will share his ebay username. I may be slow as my internet will be down for a day or so so I'm using my phone hotspot as a backup.

It won't be long before we won't be allowed to even write "Chinese".
Can't do it now on the virus, so coins won't be far behind.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I've never bought anything on Ebay nor do I search it but I always wanted to say that!

Surprised by the snarkiness here.Especially with all the higher dollar stuff that takes a few days to remove! Come on! This is a coin listed at Buy it now for $14.99! How many Chinese counterfeits have you seen with die polish lines?
Die polish lines on your coin you say? This must be proof the counterfeits from China are getting better!
so
someone dropped a dime on you
Wow 😖
That used to happen when I sold on mercari all the time. People didn’t like me so they would report all of my legitimate coins. I was eventually banned for no reason
Wow... that is nasty. Looks like a nice Merc... and I can vouch for '42 being a great year...
Cheers, RickO
Why would someone think that's fake?
Did the person give any insight to their thought process?

My thoughts exactly. They just sent a message that only said a Classic Chinese Counterfeit. Hasn't responded to my message to him after ebay ended my listing also where I did p*ss on his so called expertise a bit. I also told him I wouldn't block him for a few days to give him a chance to respond.
LOL, I assume you're joking.

Folks on this board seem to prefer their counterfeits to be made in the USA and bear fantasy dates.

I had long suspected that you were a mercury dime counterfeit peddler, @amwldcoin .
.....please don't block me
The coin is fine...
Seems that there is an organization that needs to sharpen its skills in dealing with the alternative numismatic universe which should include some form of due process before an item is removed.
As a seller you deserve better than this.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
some people just have it out for select people for really no reason, they just pick someone and go after them, love to hear their excuse as to why they thought this coin was fake

I'm of the opinion that the person who reported it as fake is just an idiot.
One thing I've learned in my 61 years, there is a fairly substantial percentage of the population that are just plain stupid.
Not ignorant, not uneducated, but just plain stupid.

yes forgot the smiley face
They are nice, actually great pics
Kennedys are my quest...
The guy pretty much said if I relist it my account could be suspended!
what is it? a PL or proof, and does it have a wipe on the obverse? maybe you can sell it here.
Those are die polish lines on the Obv. It is a luster bomb!
I do not remember seeing die polish lines on the device (cheek and neck) like that before.
Looks like a legit 42 dime.
