Many people will damage royal oak mint copies in the areas where it says copy, and sell them like that. I once saw a royal oak mint 1916 SLQ (which still had a good bit of the area where it says copy left on the coin) sell on ebay for over $500
Retail coin dealers, the only people who can buy a $10 coin for $2, and sell it for $30.
I ran the text through eBay BS Translater 1.72 with the updated hype patch: CAME ACROSS THIS HERE MIXED IN WITH A JAR OF WHEATS AT A LOCAL AUCTION. SAD PART IS SOMEONE DRILL A HOLE IN IT. WILL SELL AS IS WITH NO RESERVE AND NO REFUND. I WOULDN'T KNOW THE VALUE OF IT WITH THE HOLE IN IT. I KNOW WHAT THE VALUE IS WITHOUT AND VERY DISAPOINTED IN SOMEONE DOING THIS TO A COIN. THE FRONT SIDE IS FAIRLY WELL. THE BACK SIDE IS WORN MORE. Results: I SNAGGED THIS FROM A DEALERS 99¢ JUNK BOX LAST WEEK. I TRIED TO REMOVE THE WORD COPY WITH MY DREMMEL SO I COULD SCAM SOMEBODY ON EBAY BUT MY AMATUERISH ATTEMPTS WERE PRETTY OBVIOUS SO I DRILL A HOLE IN IT TO REMOVE THE EVIDENCE AND MY BEST BET IS TO JUST PLAY DUMB AND HOPE FOR A SUCKER.
Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.
