Wow, a 20K coin for only a few hundred bucks!

I wonder if he'd take my roll of 1913 Liberty Nics in trade?

Wow! It's amazing! The Mint didn't strike coins with collars until
the 1830s, yet this one is perfectly round! WHAT A BUY!!!

Is it just me, or is the "copy" stamp on the reverse either obliterated on
the scan or on the restrike itself???

One more thing: From the return policy:

"This item is sold as-is with no returns. Plese do not bid if you do
not accept this policy."

Run, don't walk. Run. Fast.

Hey, give the guy a break, he has bigger problems. He recently bought a pair of
women's jeans...size 38 waist ;-)

He's also purchased some "replica" Seated and Trade dollars:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3910851933
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3910852870

And all of those "DUG" coins he gets from Mrs. Stigs....they clean up nice.
He's bought 4 lots from her:
