I AM NOT ACCUSING ANYONE OF WRONG DOING BUT IM MAKING EVERYONE AWARE THAT AN INDIVIDUAL WHO CLAIMS HE IS SELLING HIS COLLECTION FOR THE PURPOSES TO SERVE GOD (see pic) SOLICITED JOHN PARKER OF PARKERS PENNIES .com CLAIMING HE WSNTS TO SELL HIS COLLECTION

SEE PICS

IM A NEW NUMISMATIST AND ALTHOUGH IVE AN APTITUDE IN NUMISMATICS AND A LIFE DEDICATED TO SCIENCE IM NEW NEW NEW

MY COLLEAGUE AND I HAVE INTERVIEWED THE GENTLEMAN AND ANALYZED PICS OF VERY RARE VALUABLE KEY DATES AND DETERMINED THAT SEVERAL COINS ARE NOT AUTHENTIC.

IVE WARNED RAMON VIA TEXT AS TO THE LEGALITIES OF SUCH OWNING OR SELLING THEM AND ASKED HIM TO GO TO A RECOGNIZED COIN DEALER WHO IS A MEMBER IF THE ANA OR NGC … CERTIFY IF AT ALL POSSIBLE AND DO NOT SELL THE COINS IN QUESTION AS WELL SS CONTACT FBI COUNTERFEIT TEAM MEMBER DOUG DAVIS AND THE PD TO FILE A COMPLAINT IF NECESSARY

My colleague that has more years in Numismatics than I am alive interviewed the guy remotely and determined that the guy was being deceitful about his collection saying he found a 1916 D merc in pocket change I can get further details if necessary

I’m really not liking my first year in Numismatics as much as I thought I’ve learned the hard way buying Tom S $1000 worth of overpriced non-authentic and knock off coins but I am passionate about Coins enough to continue but immerse myself within your community as to grow myself as well as protect others again I don’t know if Mr. Martinez is a legitimate victim we’re victimizer I’m just stating facts as they occurred please look at these pictures if they load correctly

    What are you attempting to say? Stolen from whom ? The coins pictured has minimal value and what is the point of posting them all?

    The coins in the photos are fine. Lots of collections have fake 16D dimes in them. This is a big nothing burger.

    What's a "gage 16D dime"?

    I'm seeing about $300 of stuff here

  • Actually what’s the point? He’s claiming on line that
    He has an sms 1964 Kennedy and has been trying to sell this

  • Now Mercury dimes is not my bag but according to my mentor the 6 is incorrect as well as the color indicative of Chinese knock offs

    The 1916-D is a counterfeit. Unfortunately, counterfeit coins of many types are widely available for sale on line. In some cases the sellers are aware of it and in others, not.

    Mark Feld* of Heritage Auctions*Unless otherwise noted, my posts here represent my personal opinions.

  • The Kennedy half sms he claims this to be in told there are few known examples and is worth 100k ?

    Again I’m told this by a mentor who mr Martinez spoke with.

    I’m doing my due diligence bcuz there are new people here like me and I would of seen the 16d and forgot to weigh it out of excitement and bought it

    New people like me are sought out (somehow they know a new guy) and we’re sold garbage all the time and that is why I’m doing my best to prevent calamity.

    The man claims to found a 16 dmerc dime I pocket change as well as owning 1917 ddo Lincoln which he said as well as he got in pocket changed. The man told us he won the lotto too

    There are many counterfeit coins for sale online. Each collector must exercise caution when contemplating a purchase. Seek help, study sites and available publications. Report scams. Cheers, RickO
