    The bid is up to $425 ... I can see it now, the seller (has a feedback rating of 4 with 2 negatives) is probably scrambling to find as many of these as he can and list them on eBay.

    Shortly after that, he will compose his resignation letter to his current boss as he will look to make about $400 x however many coins he/she sells. Hold on to your real cc Morgans ... this looks like fun.

    I can just about assure you that newbecoincollector is a forum member. However, I'm really hacked that I didn't get one of these. I thought they were Carson City products, but as Keets pointed out, they're from Carlson City, Nevada.

    Gotta be rare!image

    I just hope motorcycleblueeyes is a board member. A new buyer with 0 feedback and senglasses I can see, but the other bidder outbid newbiecoincollector on two of the auctions. What a rude surprise when they get $20 in coins for $900!!!image

    image Isn't there any way to get eBay to stop allowing copies, reproductions or replicas out of the coin section!!! At least theycould do is start a sub-catagory to list this trash!!
    It is irritating at best to weed through this crap to find lots that you may be interested in!image

    eBay already has such a category, it's called "Exonumia." The problem is that they don't make it an eBay violation to list items in the wrong category.

    I emailed the buyer; told him the seller is committing a fraud.

    One of the buyers already neg'd him. His feedback is going in the wrong direction. Why doesn't he just give it up.
