Guest Stujoe Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Yeah. I have no idea if it is authentic but there's no way I would buy a Trade Dollar in that situation. Too many fakes out there. Chopmarks and scale are interesting, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlueke Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Hehe, unslabbed + zero feedback + China = Fake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drwstr123 Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Gentleman/women, This is not new. Anything antique or collectable of value is being "reproduced". When in the biz. I subscribed to this newsletter to keep advised of the latest scams: www.antique-central.com/repronews.html If someone can make money without working (hard) for it. they will.

stu62 Posted March 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 The plot thickens...I e-mailed this listing to a expert on Trade dollars. He feels it MAY be real, no guarantees though. the reverse matches a known variety.No feedback and China, it could be real and I'll never get the coin. Sometimes collecting is hard. When in doubt pass it up, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlueke Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 I wonder why? Maybe Ebay has an application that autimatically cancels zero feedback coin auctions from China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
