Just saw this on Quicksales, looks like scammers are over there as well.
The coin is a normal dropped 1 1931 Penny, but for good measure (and 2 extra 0's on the price) they include a picture of a KGV penny with an Indian Obverse.

very norti
can't grade
both pics of the coin - it is obviously a normal London '31
but they are smart enough to snitch someone else's photo (as it is not even the same coin) and insert it into their listing

usually the varieties collectors know what they are after and won't fall for such a deceitful trap

my old fall back is money laundering
