UncleBobo Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 I was looking at the U.S. commemorative section in Ebay to see how much people are trying to get for the Franklin commemoratives when I came across this. 2006 Silver Eagle Libertas Americana MS The crazy wording made it seem like a U.S. Mint product. I was extatic until I realized the phrase they used for the manufacturer was "US Mint & Coin" and not the U.S. Mint That just pisses me off that they would do that!!! I thought the mint was introducing a new silver eagle design. They tried to mess with my head. Oh well, "there is a sucker born every minute!!" "Commerative" What's a commerative?

UncleBobo Posted January 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 AND the picture they use isn't even of the product that they are selling! This is just wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishmoney Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 They superimposed a denomination over the image of the medal, slick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stujoe Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Without the photoshopped 2006 and $5, it is kind of pretty. Not $149 pretty but probably $10 or $12 pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleBobo Posted January 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Yes! I love the design on this medal, that is why I went ga ga when I saw it for sale. But, not for $150 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
