Hey Robbie, I think the $2 is a genuine die filled or die adjustment error but the 20 &10 cent belong in the rubbish bin for sure.

Call it what you like. Just don't bid on it!
Normally a reliable seller too. I would expect better.

I agree Jeff,the seller has always be good in my experiences with them,it is very disappointing that they have this crap up though.
