Because that's eBay.
Anyone can list almost anything for any amount of money.
It doesn't necessarily mean it's worth that much!

I had to explain this to my step son who wanted to know why there were 1961 Denver Cents with no errors nor varieties listed for $200.00?

 

Thats it.

And there is a different want a price and get the price!

Look at this eBay offer here:
2 Euro Strichmännchen

You can find this coin at different auctions - up to 10.000 Euro and more - because the owner think, this was a error issue - but it was a completely normal mint you can buy at a serious coin seller for 4-5 Euro.

 

And then somebody posts one of those "get rich" videos claiming a coin is worth gobs of money because of the asking price on one of these bogus ebay or etsy listings.

 

Well thank you. I have one of these and was hoping he was correct.

 

I have two of them from when my dad was stationed in Germany. I'm rich!

Highest mintage of the whole series. Numista says in UNC it's worth $1.90. Not sure where these sellers come up with this stuff.
