Just a bit.....????

The place is full of them. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2011-rare-50p-olympic-lines-over-face-aquatic-coin/112726944705?_trkparms=aid%3D777003%26algo%3DDISCL.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20160608105753%26meid%3D58d0f81fc57c49aeb49fb22f73b7361f%26pid%3D100012%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D253340607325&_trksid=p2047675.c100012.m1985

Wow, an expensive mistake. Cheers.?

There is a lot of interest in this lot. Any idea what it is...or is not?https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Unknown-Silver-Hammered-Coin-Siege-Sixpence/202162280662?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160727114228%26meid%3Dfc0a0b7db625472882d99298d19dd4c2%26pid%3D100290%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D4%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D222779920673&_trksid=p2060778.c100290.m3507

Happy New year. I,ve reported him as well. Worth a try. I will watch with interest to see if ebay do anything. ?

Is this a really bad scratch or is the nose all wrong on this double florin? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/victoria-double-florin/292374047509?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

In my opinion, it looks in too good condition Stu, especially with it still being under estimate.. If the bidding takes off toward the 2k mark then its possibly ok. I personally would stay away if they cannot even correspond with you and you have any doubts. . You know all the old cliches without me telling you.

A dodgy seller advertises it and gets a friend to put in a "shill" bid in the hope of attracting a mug into bidding against him/her.The sale ends up getting cancelled, so nothing ventured nothing gained. They're up to all the tricks.???

A question for possibly Rob? Does this coin look too good? The A in GRATIA is unbarred and the portrait looks slightly different in my opinion. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Queen-Anne-Silver-Halfcrown-1707-Sexto-VF-Spink-3582/272979956277?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140107094819%26meid%3Dc9414aea9b6b450cafb7ddb0d69875ee%26pid%3D100039%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D272979956277&_trksid=p2054436.c100039.m2059

Looks ok to me.

Its a bit darker than the other 1847. It just doesn't look right, but I thought I would get a 2nd opinion. I,ve messaged the seller. Going by the rest of their listings, this looks out of place.

Is this another 1847 fake only darker toned? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1847-CROWN/122843823753?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160727114228%26meid%3D0dffe5a4115c4ef1acd9f2c5966fcae0%26pid%3D100290%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D222750487224&_trksid=p2060778.c100290.m3507

I see that lovely metal detecting find sold for £133.... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Victoria-Silver-Crown-1847-Metal-Detector-Find/222747356768?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

Nice one Stu. Dorchester coins is a treasure trove of fakes.

If you scroll back this link, you will find all the replicas about. If it helps any. ?

He has another auction next weekend of hammered coins, some nice looking coins again up for sale.

Great idea!!

Hi Tom, the price increased by too much, but judging by other coins it was still a good buy. I will just hold on and see what else comes along. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hammered-Silver-Coin-Charles-1st-Shilling-c-1638-AD/372135394285?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

There is a nice sale on just now on Ebay, of what i hope are genuine hammered coins. I might have a bid on that that lovely Charles 1st shilling which finishes in a wee while. ???

Cheers Stu. Appreciated. ???

I stand corrected buddy. Yes it was Omega_2. I think we are wasting our time reporting them although its always reassuring to see the duds listed on here, keeps me from making an ass of myself again. ???

This is the same seller who sold me that dodgy James 1st shilling a few months ago Stu. After a lenghthy process and him calling me the crook i received a refund. I left him negative feedback for it, only for me to check his listings a few days later and my feedback had disappeared leaving him 100% again. He has quite a few "hammered" coins listed just now amongst other stuff. I wonder how much of it is genuine? I see his other one never got unlisted either. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Interesting-Item-Metal-Detecting-Find/152814735199?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160727114228%26meid%3D7072a55585bf4ac8837c0a7d8ee04bcd%26pid%3D100290%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D152814735199&_trksid=p2060778.c100290.m3507
