    That coin just screams counterfeit, no confirmation needed.

    The reverse is putrid

    Just to be clear, he was a member that was banned, not a banned member :)
    LOL

    No need to even look at the mintmark. The design details on each side don’t match that of genuine Seated Liberty quarters. Reported.

    Hopefully someone will actually listen to you, since you're a somebody. For about the past year everytime I report something, even something so blatantly obvious as these Chinese fakes, nothing is done. It appears from where I'm sitting that eBay is knowingly and willingly facilitating the import of counterfeit coinage into the United States.

    Sometimes the items I report are removed but sadly, many other times, even the most blatant of counterfeits aren’t.

    I wonder what eBay’s formula is for removing a fake listing. Is it some combination of either enough people reporting it or maybe the “right” person reporting? FWIW, I reported it as well but if history is any indicator that means little to nothing to eBay.

  • MFeldMFeld Posts: 13,485 ✭✭✭✭✭

    The same seller has other counterfeits currently listed, as well as others under completed listings.

    It could just be a case of staffing. They are looking at many other categories at the same time as coins.

    This is a more serious problem with the mega tech and social media companies and moderation.

    They will be vigilant just enough to sustain commercial and government acceptance without endangering profitability goals.

    How expensive to fill office buildings with staffing to catch everything? Very.

    Sold for under $30, glad he fool too many people and it sold cheap. Hope the buyer gives him a neg and return.

    If the buyers can't tell it's fake from the images, they probably won't be able to tell it's fake once they receive it. Check out this guy's reviews, I only see three buyers who realized their mistake.
