Possible? Stolen Photo

[Fr45h3R]

Hi All,
Be careful of this one. I only say 'possible' because it is sold, so the person may be reselling it.
In any case, they have probably used the image without the consent of the owner.

Yes, those photos are stolen. The real person who owns this crown, graded MS64, is not the seller of this coin and has not sold the coin.

Buyer beware with this ebay guy. What you see in the pic is not what you get!

Dear positivemind24,

Hi,

Just checking with the condition of the coin, the coin in the photo are they photos of the actual coin for sale?

Thanks

Sadly I find eBay has a lot of this sort of thing.
