    Yeah, tried it on a coin and found out it doesn't work. I'll have to see what else I can find to spend it on. Thanks!

    Thanks for the heads up! I just purchased a 1964 or previous dated silver dime from Ebay item number, 163671713723. It’s from a new seller, but it’s worth the .25 cent risk!

    I've had great transactions with people like: drwstr123, CCC2010, AlanLastufka, Type2, Justlooking, zas107, StrikeOutXXX, 10point, 66Tbird, and many more!

    OK help me understand this. The rules in the original post above say coins (in that category) are excluded. Where are these silver coins above listed?

    Also, why are people saying there is a risk - doesn't the coupon either work or not at checkout?

    The Ebay listing for the silver dimes was created by the seller in a different category than what was excluded from the coupon. Therefore, Ebay still allows the sale along with the coupon. The listing price is for, $3.25. Since the coupon instantly saves you $3.00, the difference is .25 cents. The only risk that I see is that the seller only has a 4 positive feedback. Even still, if the seller doesn’t end up delivering, Ebay would still make it right. So, really, there’s no risk, but the potential of an inexpensive silver dime :)!

    One more thing, if you paste the listing number that I posted above in Ebay’s search engine, it’ll take you to the listing.

    I need help too :)
    Is not Bullion a subcategory of Coins & Paper Money? At least that is how it looks to me.
    TIA

    Bump...

    Come on, people. If you can't find something that is worth buying at a $3 discount, then go for the overpriced $3.25 silver dime mentioned above (or similar) that nets out to 25 cents after using the coupon.

    The guy selling Roosevelt dimes posted a message that he ran out, now he's selling mercury's for $3.69. Still a good deal for .69

    Whether you think you can or, think you can't, you're right.

    He must have wondered why everyone was buying his overpriced dimes all of a sudden. :D

    Must have run out of Mercs. He is now selling 2 coin lots of Roosevelt Dimes for $5.55 Reason why ebay is accepting the coupon code....he's listed them in the:
    "Collectibles>Wholesale Lots>Other Collectible" category

    I picked up a Mercury Dime for $0.59 after discount. I wish I knew ahead of time when these coupons were coming out. I'd list a whole bunch and let eBay fill my wallet for once.. :D

    I used it several times; and told a friend about it who used his ebucks and that but unfortunately bought a common dipped Peace dollar for around $30, too much.

    I also got a nice AU or better 1964 dime. Not bad for 25 cents.

    Since this happens at unpredictable times, I've found it's worthwhile to have one or two items always listed in some category like collectibles (or list something when people mention a promo is going on).

    It also helps for people who use Ebates as the coins category seems to always be excluded.

    Once again, I never understood why eBay excluded these coupons from the coins section. What the heck is the difference?
    Anyway, thanks for the heads up. Bought a silver quarter for 1.50 or so
