Do you think that it's the Bluetooth headset he appears to be wearing that gives it away?

[brokencompass]

I should have noticed the headset but I noticed the Bionic eye and the mutated mammoth instead of the elephant.

I had seen a coin of Edward which was listed in Ebay India and was worse than this, still after notifying ebay about this the coin was never removed from the listing. The only good thing was that even after the seller relisting the coin for 2-3 times it went unsold.
Dont know if ebay is really trying to enforce the rule to stop fakes and copy's being sold on ebay.

The same seller also has RARE-RUPEE-SILVER-UNCIRCULATED- that has been very circulated before it was copied and also has an edge dig.

The first of the linked fakes above appears to have been removed -- does this mean that eBay has acted on someone's complaint?

[brokencompass]

Yes, that's correct. Ebay keeps history for 90 days. Since the auction was current at the time of posting, its most possible Ebay has removed the posting.

Very interesting 'uncirculated'.
