What they list on e-bay (and what they mean)
Choice frosted gem proof, (just ignore the haze;
3rd time e-bay listing, unsold for 30 days).
A Turks and Caicos 20 Crown, (featuring Churchill’s face,
Not pretty to look at, a design you’d just as soon erase).
Exquisite Belize proof set, please check photo for grading
(‘cause the numismatic skills I never had are fading).
10 Ancient Roman coins for 19.99-Gold was found!
(One in the original batch when first pulled out of the ground).
Wow! Huge hoard of truly unsearched wheat cents!
(Searched by the previous owner but not me in my defense).
COLORIZED Vatican Extinct POPE J PAUL II Coin,
(this coin the Dodo bird will eventually join).
Coin store for sale-$2.00, complete with top domain.
(Couldn’t make a living with it-terrible financial drain)
Beautiful unknown coin-may be solid gold or plated,
($29 starting bid + $8 to ship will leave me quite elated).
High grade English Florin-Low starting price-Look!
(this coin’s so bloody worn, you couldn’t ID it with the book).
So on and on it goes, the circus we call E-bay..
It’s not what the seller shows, it’s what he chose to say.
Please don't hesitate to add raw material from e-bay that strikes you as funny or ludicrous.
