It should be noted that this seller “lavaunit” has a 100% Positive feedback score with 52 responses yet has 4 negative and 4 neutral responses. Clearly a 100% “Positive feedback” score is very misleading.

But, but, but it came from grandpa's house. Actually a very smart grandpa that suspects his grandkid will steal from him and thus salts his collection with fakes.....go grandpa!!

Yes, they often bring in grandpa. That adds to the human interest aspect.
I've seen this a number of times on eBay.

"There i do not know any history of the coin of where he (Grandpa
) got it.
It looks very very shiny! and from what i have heard thats a good thing"
Something definitely fishy...that coin looks at least 65...
Pathetic fake coin, pathetic fake holder.
Looks like some chocolate coins my daughter gave me for Christmas......
Even with poor pictures, that one is obvious... Cheers, RickO
I get folks all the time, grandpa left this and that . Total BS
Is that the "body bag" that accompanies this piece of junk underneath it?

Poor pictures are standard procedure for those who offer counterfeits on the Internet. Poor pictures should be red flags for Internet buyers. If you are selling "a sick pig" show it in the dark or out of focus.
I did message the seller and got his response today:
New message from: lavaunit (52)
hi, thanks for your message it is much appreciated. I have an appointment with an antiques specialist to see the coin Saturday afternoon. Kind Regards
So, as you can see he's real interested in getting it authenticated! Not even a coin shop (which is what I messaged) but an antiques specialist? Hmmmmmmmmmm
At least it's gone.

Terrible looking fake.
Looks like one of those gold plated replicas advertised that sell for ~$29.95?
"We have a situation where we're looking very strongly at sinks and showers and other elements of bathrooms where you turn the faucet on -- and in areas where there's tremendous amounts of water, where the water rushes out to sea because you could never handle it, and you don't get any water”.
"You turn on the faucet and you don't get any water. They take a shower and water comes dripping out. Just dripping out, very quietly dripping out," the President continued, lowering his voice as he spoke about the drips.
"People are flushing toilets 10 times, 15 times, as opposed to once."
