Take a look at this listing:
1873-CC $10 Gold Scam
The image of the coin appears to be a picture of a photo in a coin book!!
Does anyone recognize this plate coin, and what book it came from (I don't)? I asked the seller for additional images of the "coin" -- we will see what he says!!
Also, look at some of the sellers other auctions -- nice photos of other coin pictures as well!

"THESE ARE NOT BOOK PHOTOS THEY ARE ACTUAL COINS ..I WILL EMAIL PICS OF ME WITH THEM IN MY HAND...I HAVE SOLD THOUSANDS WORTH OF COINS...MORGANS...BARBER DIMES.PENNIES.ECT...JUST CHECK MY RECORD"
The forum member indicated he would be looking forward to receiving the new images and again warned the seller.

<< <i>sorry ebay doesn't allow cash deals..this is a stamp worth alot of money it is best if it is shipped and insured due to ebay policies..thanks i could discount shipping though >>
With shipping of $1 and insurance of $1 on a stamp that could easily be worth over $500, I think I'll pass.

Have him send you an image of the reverse of the stamp so you can see the gum, or a photo of him holding the stamp with tongs. That will make his listing go "poof"!
