Coin is all wrong, lettering is far too heavy. Incidentally the barcode doesn't match the coin number either.

Ebay sellers name is funny.

From China with a feedback of 34, still getting plenty of bids though. I do wonder if some of the more unscrupulous dealers buy these chinese pieces up cheap as most in the know are put off then respin them to make a killing.

Has anyone contacted Ebay about it ?

mnemtsas2 · June 28, 2010 7:43AM

I did, but I dont hold out much hope about Ebay Australia doing anything about it.

They didn't. Sold for US$537.55.

Don't worry it didn't sell, still working with eBay to have this seller removed. It's bloody pain though, eBay is telling me I have to pay for the item, then they will help me get my money back and remove the seller!

Glad to see it! Please let us know how it turns out in the end.
