Not that old chestnut "old tin full of coins"
I cannot for the life of me see $8,300 value in that not so old tin :dash1:
Shilly buggers:dodgy:
I think it's a type O and there should be a decimal point before the eight :)
There's a modern fake 1930 on the right hand side conveniently with its date showing slightly sticking out from under a coin. You can see the date clearly in the second photo to determine it's a fake.

Yes I saw that, looks like there is a lot of Shilling going on as well.
Pricks like these make it so hard for an honest seller to use eBay :dash1:

:i_agree: I think all bids so far are shill. (I reported it for that too).
ah the old money laundering ....
good eyesight there Walter.
Under what cat can you report this?
Gee, I have some old ciggie tins and plenty of rubbish coins. Should (but won't) put a few "finds" together.
I'm with trout on the sentiment
it must be the tin that's worth the money :laugh2:
but yeah it doesn't help buyers either as it puts us off..well it puts me off :(
I have about a hundred old ciggy tins but there's no coins in them nor will there ever be,dodgy batsturds.
yeah it does a lot for the tin having coins scratch it all up..hehe yeah bats, that's a pearla :good:

The strategic "930" with the dodgy numerals was enough for me to report this :ok:
and besides if these were stored in that tin they would of greened up and stained the tin.
That tin is shiny new :dodgy:
Quote from: 'lacey' pid='27453' dateline='1378629883'good eyesight there Walter.
Under what cat can you report this?
IMO you could do it under either:
Listing practices
Fraudulent listing activities
Seller is using other accounts to inflate item price
or
Prohibited and restricted items
Stamps, currency and coins
Replica coins, replica paper money and replica stamps

I reported it under "Fraudulent listing practices" as soon as I viewed it :ok:
Hehe....i don't trust any old tins that aren't part of a deceased Estate sale...LOL...a few $ in Ebay fees hovering thou.
Look at the price now, $11,300
Reckon the guy will leave the country with his ill gotton gains.
"don't know much coins" he say's,,
He knows exactly what he is doing here.
but nowhere does he say a 1930 penny, but the way it's hidden with partial date.
Come in spinner!!
Nah they won't leave interest as it's their usual scam and if you know nothing about coins why wouldn't you start at .99 unless you know a little bit :dodgy:

If you have a look at what he's bought lately, this is in amongst all the other coin purchases about which he "Don't know much" :

Anyone that falls for this
QuoteFound this old smoke tin, with 29 coins in the garage of a property i was about to demolish!! Don't know much coins.
probably deserves to be ripped off if they've got that much money to literally throw away. Exactly the same tin! :dodgy: :dodgy: :dodgy:
Just another eBay germ!
:i_agree: Nevol
I noticed a stack of recent coin purchases by them so knew the "don't know much" bit was crap.
Ha .... he's bought the tin off the guy who's sold more tins than I've had hot dinners!!!

Yup, and after reporting the scam, I dropped that guy a note pointing that out, and not-so-subtly commenting on the crooks ruining ebay. Not that it will do any good of course, but its nice to let them know they're being watched.

Didn't realise it was a contest... :dodgy:
it's not, who could catch the windbag anyway..not I McFly :)
Not quite a cigarette tin but hopefully a Pascall lolly tin from the 50's will qualify. I know this one is genuine because I got it from the late Mother in Law's house when she passed away last year.
Nothing significant in it but I got about a kilo of old copper and .5 Kg of silver (pre and post).
One coin, a 1960, penny in a/Unc displayed some beautiful toning as well as one of the dangers of coins not being stored correctly (it was untouched in the tin for 50 years). The picture captures about 70% of the toning.
PPH please don't look if you are easily distressed.

Not a very good photo of PPH though.
she was once so beautiful..
Steel and copper.
Not a good mix :dash1:

I know
*I'm* distressed. Wish I hadn't looked now... so sad. :cray:
OK, doesn't make up for the distress but this was in the same tin and shows no verdigris. Not Unc but not far off.
I suspect it is more from the coins surrounding them than anything else. Pity this one isn't toned.
Am I forgiven??????

looks unc to me
and noice
Quote from: 'Steveqld' pid='27883' dateline='1378893845'Am I forgiven??????
Yup. Now stick it in your shoe until it tones nicely. :)
I wonder if somebody is sitting at home gloating at the fact that they now have a 1930 penny that only cost $11,600.
WOOOHOOO
But will they post under the thread,, "Have you been an Ebay winner today??"
