Real or Fake ? Play along as you watch. No cheating.

This was a hard one to call. I will be 100% honest. 

But in the end we find out if it is real or fake. 

Thanks Jon. Well worth doing this from time to time to keep up awareness.

Thanks for keeping us updated. It is so hard sometimes to tell the difference, especially as I am no expert. I would never buy a silver coin off Ebay x

There are honest sellers on eBay, but there are also some rogues. I have a few sellers that I trust and buy from, mainly the US private mint rounds that are next to impossible to get here. Also, a number of mainstream dealers also sell there: Minted; Aurinum; EMK; Provident; Scottsdale; Pure Scottish Silver and (I think) the Coin Shoppe to name but a few. Of course, they also have their own websites but eBay gets their name in front of more people.

There is a member that came from Ebay after I asked them too not that long ago.
