So much for his computer being down

This is indeed an interesting thread to follow along in the reading of.

I simply must comment on this one: The seller states it is from the
National Collector's Mint.

Yes, the seller does indeed do so. But not with a design of indicating to
potential bidders -- "Hey! Look closely! This is *not* a genuine Morgan
1889CC coin." It seems to me that he has used verbiage sufficient to stir
the passion of those interested in acquiring a genuine coin of such mintage,
and to acquire one at an incredibly low price. For what it's worth, I view
the seller as a crook of a most reprehensible stripe, who has gone to great
lengths to misrepresent the coin, yet his ploy is veiled within the sleazy
wrappings of an attempt to be able and come back to say (after he lines his
pocket), "But it was plainly stated that the item is from the National
Collector's Mint."

Really? Just like that, huh?

Why isn't he shut down then?


Because ebay is supposedly "just a venue" and won't do anything contrary to
their bottom-line if they can at all help it.

But then, you knew that before you replied.

Or conversely, why is the world supporting far too many lawyers that might
say
otherwise to your reading of the code?

Such as?

We aren't talking about some repro trinket with a 19th century date slapped on
it for looks. We are talking about money. Legal Tender. The tangible medium
of our fiscal desires. Coins and currency have a status far above any mundane
whatchamacallit because of the trust involved with their use. The
counterfeiting laws address what happens when that trust is abused.

Again, go back and read them.

Nein. Nur Eine, Fredd.

I think you both are too strict in your opinions.
There should always be a way to find a consensus.

receive the following negative feedback today.

Here is the corresponding thread over on the PCGS board:

If you pay close attention towards the end of the thread, you will be able to figure out who
scamcrook is. Needless to say, this jerk won't be getting $600+ for this particular misleading
auction of a cheap replica.

Bidding to neg. was every bit as wrong as the sellers auction.
I wonder how much that thing would have sold for if there hadn't been
interference?
