    Clearly the bidder did not bother to read the description. The seller claims the coin is a fake, which I would tend to believe.

    I would not bid on it for free. If you GAVE me the coin, I would just throw it away.

    He's been selling added mintmark coins. Sometimes calls them "S altered". My guess is the "replica" coins don't have the word "copy". Scanner has been "broken" since at least November 7.

    Who in their right mind….

    With so many eBay bidders and sellers as examples, it appears that a significant portion of the population is “not in their right mind.”

    But he says that although it came back as a replica it LOOKS like the real deal. image

    As already stated, the seller does state that it's not real.

    Isnt there a section in Coin&Papermoneo for replicas? This brings up a thought of mine.....How many of Ken Potters Royal Oak replicas are being altered with " replica" removed and being sold as genuine? WAY too many of the " replicas" on Ebay if you ask me.

    ...HEY... he says it's the "REAL DEAL REPLICA"... is that sort of like an "honest to god copy" or a "true to life fake"? That's quite the oxymoron! Maybe even as big a moron as santos0667...L
