Ebay item "Roll" of Troy LB Eagles Very Deceptive

Nowhere does this seller mention a troy lb would only be 12 Eagles, he shows a picture of a couple of opened rolls. Am I wrong to think this is pretty low?

    it is somewhat deceptive. He should let people know that they aren't gonna get 16 eagles but instead 12 eagles

    I've noticed some sellers on ebay selling those large rounds that say 1 pound fine silver.......some people are probably thinking they will get 16 ozs or something like that.

    This sort of stuff has been going on since the first day of eBay.

    Actually, it's been going on for all of history, but it's certainly nothing new on eBay.
    "Lenin is certainly right. There is no subtler or more severe means of overturning the existing basis of society(destroy capitalism) than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."

    Deception by omission. Not saying anything that is not fact, Just leaving out details which could fool some new collectors. I think I will send them an email.

    There is now a question and answer that says the buyer will receive 12 one ounce coins.
    Doesn't explain why this is a "roll."

    He has a bunch more still going with the bogus title/description.

    EBAY loves him.
