First off if you look at the auctions for which she has left feedback
most are for the same type of coins you offered. Also her negative
comment is a bit strange where she says she does not remember bidding
on the auction. I would respond to the negative by suggesting she see
a doctor since she is obviously starting to have the onset of dementia.
Then I would neg her with the comment places bid and then says she
does not remember.
