1889-CC with stolen image up on Ebay....

Image was stolen from Vamworld: HERE

Vamworld says it's an image from Heritage but I can't find.

Most likely will not turn out well for the buyer.

52 bids already!! And the seller is from Austria. Ebay, for some stupid reason that they may have, does not let you report stolen photos unless they are your own. Could the seller possibly own this coin, even though they are not his photos?

AUandAG

Good question, but I asked for a new pic on his kitchen table and have been ignored.

looking through the seller's fb is NOT very reassuring ><

just one example. this cert pulls up as a Secure Plus but isn't in that type holder - does this mean they are now using newer cert numbers? uh-oh

on a semi-unrelated note. the SP image of the coin above by pcgs is probably the best SP image i've seen yet

This seller sure has balls. Hope he's caught and sent to prison, somewhere unpleasant.

I saw that one. I didn't post it here, because while the seller had little feedback from Austria, the coin looked gorgeous and real. I wouldn't know where to look to see if a pic was stolen.

On that note: here is a fake '89CC to report: Fine with a little cartwheel. All right...

GOOD! That 1916 D Merc is horrible too.

His other pics are NOT ones worth stealing. I'm gonna say he owns AN 1889-CC, he's selling it and this is a Stock photo. Very reasonable explanation.
