    As opposed to the highest bidder not winning? Then again, the highest bidder on this auction will not be a winner.

    You guys are so negative- why would the person lie about such an important coin?

    By the way the same seller just opened auctions for a "Flux Capacitor" and a Unicorn.

  • I have not bought some Morgans from this seller in the past and it has worked out great for me, I feel like a winner.

    Asked for better images and put it on my watch list. Caveat Emperor at it's best. You get what you bid on, on there in most cases.

    I suspect that eBay takes a very dim view of trolls who try to also list flux capacitors and unicorns for sale. image

    I sent him an email saying 'it's amazes me that all sellers of fake coins seem to acquire these coins from their Grandfather" and this was his reply (check out the fabulous grammar).....

    Actual response.........

    "i dont appreciate u refering. to my dead grandfathers coin collection as fake. me and my grampa spent hundreds of hrs collecting coins together. i loved him and spending time coin collecting with him is something ill charish forever

    I always thought the odds of me getting an 1895 Proof were as good as me finding a unicorn. This guy apparently lived my dream. image
