    The one bid has to be a shill. How could a reasonable person bid on this?

    Totally agree. First thought was that it was fake.

    Is this is the new fraud, buff it, hole it, plug it, till it's impossible to conclude anything from an image?

    “Holed, Plugged, Polished, Tooled and cleaned.”

    Shezzz, I guess it could be worse.....

    It could be bent, buck shot, dug up, forced through a sieve, consumed by drug smugglers and dropped into the commode,
    run over by a semi trailer, eaten by the neighborhood dog and thus returned!!!

    Actually looks like a half dollar. Wouldn't comment on authenticity without examination.

    I firmly believe in numismatics as the world's greatest hobby, but recognize that this is a luxury and without collectors, we can all spend/melt our collections/inventories.
