Cheers guys. Gonna end the auction and direct here where i got my advice. Nice people. Lovely site. Shame i don't collect coins. Would love to say thanks. lorraine.jordan1@ntlworld.com x

Cool to read the posts between u guys. Shall i end my auction. I am up to £83 for this thing and really dont know what to do. Is it worth this much as a fake? I think i will stick to selling baby clothes hehe.

Thanks so much for your reply. When u say u have seen these before, are they modern forgeries or new forgeries? And if they are old forgeries are they still of any value to a collector? I don't know wether to end the auction or to add information as to what i have found out tonight and ask bidders to withdraw if they are not happy. I am thinking about adding to my details what i have learnt tonight and contacting the highest bidder incase he doenst read the latest add on to the description. I have learnt an important lesson tonight. Don't sell things for other people when i know nothing about them. Certainly impressed with the fast responses here tonight to help me come to a decision.

Gee, dunno wot to do. Is it at all collectable and of any value as u can see? Whoever bids on it can see same as you. Confused.

The link to the pic is here. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...me=STRK:MESE:IT its a very tatty looking coin and i gather from what i have found out tonight that its supposed to be gold/

Yes i have. Will send right away. Appreciate the help seeing this auction ends tomorrow and i dont want my feedback tainted through selling something for a friend , something i know nothing about.

Hi I have been given a coin to sell on ebay from a friend. We both know nothing about coins. My auction ends tomorrow but a member has emailed me to to inform me that the coin does not look original and looks like a token coin. Please can anyone let me know how i can tell the difference. I don't know anything about this coin or how to spot if its real or not. I have just listed it as rare as i thought it was a rare coin. What is a token coin? I don't want to sell this coin to a buyer who is not happy. Help please.
