    I dunno, I kind of like it...Looks like it might actually be old, fake or not.

    look at its size relative to the fingers holding it.

    it spans 2-1/2 fingers?....a dime?

    It's most definitely fake.

    No, I'm aware it's a fake, just saying it's neat and looks like it still has age to it. No worries, I won't be the over or under bidder on the coin.

  • Let's see, an eBay auction of a 216-year-old, uncertified, five-figure U.S. coin with no visible wear but grainy details, being sold from Thailand by a seller with 54 feedback that can barely put an auction together in English, who claims his 1796 dimes coin is very old and no fake.

    Seems legit to me -- too bad it's AT image

    Dang, I was so on the edge about bidding but now that you've mentioned it I see where you see the AT.

    Guess I won't be bidding. image

    Yeah, I might jump in; I don't have any foreign coins.

  • It's a 1796 counterfeit off-centered with rim bust dollar. This crook couldn't even get the denomination correct
