These guys must lay awake at night thinking this stuff up. Yes technically everything he said is true. But most people are going to just read the heading and see a "roll" of silver war nickels for well less than a roll of war nickels should be selling for and bid on it.
They won't read the "fine" print and see that he is actually selling little baby 1/2 rolls.
Copper - the "poorman's" precious metal !!

Yup not as bad as I thought- Everything is legit.
But the use of Roll is risky and is meant to deceive. If a good honest seller wanted to sell a $1 roll they would say a lot of 20 coins, not a misleading mini-roll.
Wonder if the buyer is going to ticked off, file a claim, and would win?
