    Counterfeit everything unless they are selling it as a counterfeit everything, in that case legit all the way.

    Fake.
    CCs positioned much too high for VAM 11.
    No lines in wing (which are very visible on genuine coins).
    Star tips are not pointed.

    When in doubt, don't.

    Have they changed reporting method? I didn't find a wording anywhere near counterfeit.

    No change.

    The label's fonts look like refugees from a Rorschach test.

    That is what I meant, Mark. When I clicked on Prohibited and Restricted items it did not offer stamps, currency and coins as usual. I scrolled down in case the screen wasn't big enough but not offered. Tried it several times. I've done so a couple/three times before on lincolns with no problems. May be a glitch.

    I have reported also. Such a shame if this auction doesn’t get shut down.

    It is still up even with all the reports. I finally was able to report it also. Perhaps even more need to report it. Ebay doesn't usually allow something like this to continue.

    I reported it again. Keep reporting it and maybe we can get it taken down.
