Is it just me, or is this for real?

    Either counterfeit or altered date.

    It's a semi-common forgery/counterfeit/whatever.

    That's against the law.
    Love the 1885-CC Morgan

    Also, note the filled letters in IGWT.

    It's a chinese piece of chit.

    I sent seller a note saying the same, with a nice "better take it off ebay before you get burned" explanation!

    That's a silver eagle bullion coin, with alterred date. I question if it's even an authentic silver eagle. Maybe he bought these at a yard sale.

    This takes stupid to a new level.

    Nah, not a silver eagle with altered date. Just a piece of cast crappola.

    Man was I shocked to see a trade dollar in his other items... imageimage
    First get the knowledge, then the coins.

    The Chinese are losing their "touch". Where's the "CC" mint mark underneath the eagle? It would sell better if it were 1906-CC.

    A low quality piece of Chinese junk. And it isn't even made of silver.

    Got that right! If I knew how to report them, I would (never done it before, would definitely do this one).

    It's not a SAE at all. Friend of mine went to Hong Kong over a year ago and came back with one just like that, and a couple of others....he thought they were real, old, and worth some money. He paid less than $20 for 3-4 "coins". All, including a 1897 morgan, were fake. Not even silver.

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    At the bottom of the auction page is a "report this item" link.

    These are cheap, low quality counterfeits made from some sort of base metal and certainly not silver. Although I would not be surprised to see these coming through and out of China, I have heard that this 1906 Dollar design has been coming out of the Middle East.
