    Is this lot above board and what is the small writing about on the obverse of the shilling? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/silver-coins-charles1-and-2-george-3-and-old-long-cross-silver-coin/122797190412?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

    I see he has relisted this coin at auction now. Is it a dud and has anyone reported it? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RARE-Q-V-SILVER-GOTHIC-CROWN-1847-No-Time-Wasters-Please/263318002161?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

    I decided to email the seller of these fake Danewood halfcrowns to cancel the order, instead of risking the £100 purchase price on a risky return, to leave the negative feedback. He claims to have no idea what i am talking about, even although the 10+ halfcrowns he sold were all replicas from the same place. How on earth can he have 1500+ sales with no negative feedback whatsoever? I was going to report him to ebay via telephone. But is it really worth all the time and hassle trying to explain to someone who hasn't a clue about coins, that he has ripped off loads of buyers? The answer is NO because ebay could not care less, which has been said a thousand times on here. They do not want any bad publicity by getting Fraud squads involved with, which to them is a trivial matter, prosecuting, finding people guilty, then getting it all plastered over the media and showing Ebay for what it is. They don't even want you leaving negative feedback as its bad for business. I left negative feedback for a seller who sold me a dud, after a lenghthy case against him, only for it to be rescinded a day later. So really why bother. Ebay the judge and jury!! At the end of the day, your really using Ebay at your own peril. Some you win and some you lose. ?

    It would mean him getting off with it to do the same again.....he made about 1k earlier. I wonder how many times he has pulled this stunt?

    Yes WPA, they were all sold this evening. I,m surprised they made it past this forum. I tried searching the forum for fake Victorias but there's no info unfortunately. ???

    What about this 1886 Queen Victoria halfcrown. Is it unusual for the 6 to have a curly tail?? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1886-Queen-Victoria-Young-Head-Silver-Half-Crown-In-Nice-Condition/172964108550?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2748.l2649

    Have a look at this 1911 gold half sovereign. Might be wrong but to me the sword suspect. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1911-half-gold-sovereign/282720520015?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649
