Ignorant, moronic seller...need I say more?

...and, yes, I see that he has no clue how to properly write descriptions, totally mixing up dates and conditions. What a fool.

    Why do you assume the seller can't grade coins? Maybe he knows how to grade but is also a crook who chooses to grossly overgrade when selling coins.

    I dont assume he cant grade coins, he shows that.


    If he is a scammer too, well that just makes sense.

    It really peeves me that these idiots can operate on eBay with such impunity. Of course, there's always a buyer out there. The coin got pretty much what it's worth (by eBay standards at least), but there should be a way that these fools get screened out as sellers.

    After I dug it up from the flower bed I somehow scratched it with this here staple, however it doesn't distract from the mint luster and rare date of this fine collectable.

    EBAY lets him this person sell that coin with his crazy and apparent "know nothing grading".

    But Ebay will delete an auction of a PCI coin if some fool reports it.
