The horrible influx of fraudulent listings for rare coins is destroying the hobby.In the last three weeks, I purchased coins listed as original that were actuallyfakes or not as described. I have been a collector for over 50 years, purchasedmany on eBay when this wasn't a concern. Now will stop buying until this is fixed.eBay needs to resolve this as they are losing the confidence of the seriouscollector community. Confirm sellers reputation and location, especiallythose from overseas where these are made. Stipulate "copy" and create aseparate replicas category for these coins so we can be assured of not beingtaken for serious money.Little doubt this will be swept away and ignored but someone had to tell you.
