    How do people get away with selling these? I know they put "brass" in the title, still doesn't make it right, what's stopping the purchaser passing it off as the real thing?
    I'm sure feebay doesn't give a toss.

    $56 for a commemorative worthless copy it's bs.

    What a nasty way to fool people, the photo on that ebay listing is of a real 1937 Crown then the below has been put between the lines in the description

    Hard road finding authentic coins on ebay... Great place to offload junk and pass it off as something it isn't without fear or reprisal
