kopeikin Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 I found this rouble on the eBay. How by looking at the pictures provided can I determine if it is authentic of fake. http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...:PIC&ih=008 Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kopeikin Posted September 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 As since this morning the price went up to $204+$40SH, I assume some people think it is genuine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hussulo Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 As since this morning the price went up to $204+$40SH, I assume some people think it is genuine. I don't know, but the seller only has 3 feedback all for purchases from one seller and the current high bidder has a feedback of 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kopeikin Posted September 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Thanks, Hussulo, This eBay sale certainly looks like a scam. From the lack of other coins people feedback I conclude that these days there is no way to know by the picture of a coin if it is a fake or a genuine. Pretty grim discovery for a young collector of coins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennysky Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 I would recommend you avoid this auction for obvious reasons. Coin looks questionable, but even if it is real the picture may have been pirated from somewhere slse. The seller has too little a feedback to deal with. Unfortunately there will still be some who will fall for it nevertheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
