Shill bidding? Seller is an not the sharpest knife in the drawer as well....

Asked the seller for better pics and cautioned that there is no such overdate from San Francisco and was
told to go F*** myself. He said just watch and see where this auction goes.

But, that is when my bid was 10 cents and I was curious. Now I'm just ticked that I'm going to miss
out on this gem of a deal because my bank account is down....not.

So, do you think it's shill bidding? I did send the profanity off to ebay but I don't know what they
will do, if anything. I did mention the bids seems off.

    If there were a S mint 42 over 41 Merc, it would've been discovered long ago.
    Gonna write the seller too. Full bands what?

    Q: Need to get this authenticated as it is an unknown. Never made and This is not a 42 over 41. It has no such diagnostics. May-08-13

    A: I've done a lot of looking into it .just like you it is not a known coin in the S Mint . But If you look at the pic's you will see for your self . it's there . I have looked under a microscope , threw loops 10 - 15 - and 20 times in everything I've looked threw it's there . I know some luck person will one this coin , and when they do they will also see it . and most likely have it sent off for a grad and to have it authenticated . This Will Be a 50,000.00 $ coin at that point . there is also a 14 day refund no questions asked backing this one of a kind coin . thanks , Matt Walker .

    This is a no brainer shill bidder situation. Make that 2 shill bidders or aliases. He had to add the second shill to get the bid up.

    Two shills bidding against each other? Vying to be the
    #1 shill for this seller?

    Looks like the last real bidder bid only 10c.

    Could be a new TV show: "Shill Wars!"
