im pretty sure i have seen this person under a different name but i cant remember what it was
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bi-Centinial-Half-Dollars-qty-62-/131557711116?
its 31 dollars worth of bicentennial half dollars, which are worth.... a whopping 31 DOLLARS!!!!
scumbags....
That is the worst yet. The date is listed as 1915 for a bicentennial coin (U.S. bicentennial date is 1976). And graded at PR69. That means Proof 69. There is no way. Proofs were not sold in rolls with folded corners. And to be PCGS certified they will be encapsulated in a sealed plastic holder. The PCGS grading system is clearly defined and is only questionable when the coin is not encapsulated with the PCGS certificate. At best those might make BU grades, even then I wouldn't bet on it.
The item specifics and Detailed item info are wrong on a lot of auctions, but here they're so wrong that it's obvious they aren't correct. It's more likely carelessness about information carried over from an earlier auction listing that he re-used and forgot to update? That certainly doesn't excuse it, but I don't think he was overtly trying to cheat anyone either except with his ridiculous pricing!
did you look at his other auctions??? they are IDENTICAL.... bicentennial quarters. a nickel collection that only had 6 war nickels in it.
he is out trying to scam everybody from the bottom up, no doubt. the bicentennial half dollars that are loose are so dirty i would want a tetanus shot after trying to spend them.
That must be some use of the term IDENTICAL that I'm unfamiliar with? First you complained about the information in Item Specifics section being wrong (not PCGS, wrong year, not PR69). His other auctions don't even have that Item Specifics section? Now you're complaining because the coins are dirty and overpriced. It's obvious you just like to complain! Sure, I agree he's asking way too much for all his stuff. That's the free enterprise system though, nobody is forced to buy them! There are millions of other auctions on Ebay, so move on with your life. Better yet buy coins off that guy on television at 5am in the mornings, he only sells nice clean ones!
