Looks like she may be back. For those that don't remember, she used to sell a bunch of altered Morgan Dollars as 1893-S's

    The date does look way off. That is real unfortunate.

    I just checked her closed coin auctions and she has sold a couple of 93-S's and some raw Trade Dollars.

    ...and when the person who bought that coin for $700 goes to have it certified or tries to sell it, they will learn of their $700 mistake and the hobby will lose yet another collector.

    Its not altered, its a blatant fake (the kind from china) just like the trade dollars she is selling. Not altered. Fake.

    Report away, just remember you are reporting to Ebay who cares ZERO percent about fraud. Ebay cares ONLY about listing and final value fees. I think they have a "fraud report" of the week pool, as they sit around a laugh at the members who do the reporting, while sending out high 5 coupons to the fraudsters.

    All the fraud fighting talk is just talk.

  • Just another example of how far ebay is sinking down the toilet. Anyone spending more than 50 bucks on an ebay item these days should really think twice IMHO

    I have found power in the mysteries of thought.

    It is always a question of knowing and seeing, and not that of believing.

    Our virtues, and our failings are inseparable, like force, and matter. When they separate, man is no more.

    fortunately, you don't even need another Morgan of the same year to tell that that one is a fake.....the date is all goofy

    Looks like she may be importing her coins from China.

    And we were wondering when your fake slab maker would find a US outlet?

    Looks like we are going to need a full time group of scammer hunters.
    And maybe PCGS and NGC need's to put out a bounty on them, and if eBay was smart they would give out free listing for the persons that report the scammers.
