While this is not a colonial, it represents another abuse of the
collector with Gallery Mint products to be on the look out for. Item
#3012776132 is now closed, but this seller got over $300 for a worn
down GMM piece. It is worn to about VG and the "copy" was not
defaced. The seller lists it as a "counterfiet" intended to deceive
the collector, so I suppose he gets some points for honesty. But not
spelling. Does ebay only allow "counterfeits" on the site from
sellers who can't spell the word?
It looks like you can put a GMM coin in a rock tumbler and get about
ten times as much for it even listing it for what it is.
