Here's a strange one on ebay. This screams "scam" to me: A "rare" gold coin that looks a lot like a run-of-the-mill 1924 Peace Dollar (90% silver, 10% copper), and private feedback. The questionable item. In other news, I've noticed that PCGS's price guide has double eagles priced a little over $200 more than spot. For example, some St. Gaudens Double Eagles ($20) from the late 1910s and early 1920s have a price of $875 for MS60 grade. That's almost a troy ounce of silver.

Re: Here's a strange one on ebay. LOL That's an ordinary 1924 Peace dollar

Re: Here's a strange one on ebay. The add says gold, but it is silver. Hey great idea! Sell your silver as gold, why didn't I think of that? ONE DOLLAR 1924 GOLD COIN...CONDITION GOOD http://i7.ebayimg.com/03/i/07/b1/8b/bc_2.JPG http://i18.ebayimg.com/03/i/06/87/88/24_1.JPG

Re: Here's a strange one on ebay. It didn't sell, and I am guessing listing fees were at least around $10...

Re: Here's a strange one on ebay. that doesn't even look like gold. the least he could have done was electroplate or paint it or something. i wonder if he is just this stupid or if he thinks everyone else is stupid.

Re: Here's a strange one on ebay. WOW! And shipping was only $29.99! What a pity I missed it! I might have been able to resell it at a big profit to one of GIM's gay pseudo-intellectuals! Maybe to Ponce! :haha:

Re: Here's a strange one on ebay. I wonder if he even had the coin in the first place. The pictures of the face and the obverse look like they were taken at different times and with different cameras (or at least camera settings).

Re: Here's a strange one on ebay. I have some gold-plated silver, maybe I should go find a sucker... Last week I went to a coin dealer and asked if he had any non-numismatic silver and he offered me sterling bars at spot. When I told him I was only interested in pure silver, he said, "this is pure sterling silver".

Re: Here's a strange one on ebay. I see his feedback count is "private" Nice touch.
