I wonder what makes this ebay seller tick? This one has been listed multiple times, and the price climbs a few hundred each time. I guess you should just try to ignore the scratches and graffiti.

    Maybe he thinks it's more valuable because every time he lists it, the coin is older than it was the last time image

    Neat coin, despite the graffiti. Too bad it ain't holed, and discounted 95% below the current asking price. image
