Banksy £10 • Di-Faced Tenner, by Pistol on Apr 10, 2022 9:20:54 GMT 1, I spoke to Simon from POW many moons ago about obtaining COA’s for these tenners. He said they couldn’t possibly issue certificates for digital prints that could do easily be reproduced. Wouldn’t touch em personally. 🥴

Not my words mate! You are also talking to someone who was a lithographic printer 😉

1. Post the close-up photos you were sent — including of the QR code, the BNG identification number, and Diana's face — and let's have a look.
2. What does the eBay seller, dimet57, have to say about appearing to have sold two of these framed tenners in the space of 23 days (on 3 April as well as 26 April 2022, UK time), using identical photos for both listings?
3. What is immediately clear from the eBay and Catawiki listings you posted is that the accompanying photos feature neither the same framed tenner, nor the same Lazarides letter.
eBay*
Catawiki*
4. Presumably, Bottleneck Gallery in Brooklyn, the logical first port of call, will have had some comments about this. What did the gallery say when you made contact?
5. See also the Banksy Di-Tenner Real/Fake Comparison thread*, especially from page 5 onwards.

Banksy £10 • Di-Faced Tenner, by nsd on Apr 29, 2022 10:39:44 GMT 1, Thanks so much! Great point RE the two sales within a month.
They told me they purchased in 2019, so I have asked if they have held on to it since. I'll then flag this duplicate sale in 2021 and see their reaction.
I've reached out the the gallery, but I think I know my answer. There's way too much doubt for me to purchase this now, things just aren't adding up.
These are the pictures they sent - the landing page on the QR code is legit, at least they put effort in haha.

Thank you for posting the photos you received from the eBay seller, dimet57.
In case you decide to follow up again with Bottleneck Gallery, check whether the same BNG identification number (BNG101528) may possibly have been used twice — for two different framed Di‑Faced Tenners, with two different QR codes.
And if the answer is "No", ask the staff for their thoughts on which of the items below look either authentic or fake:
BNG holographic stickers and Lazarides letter from eBay*
BNG holographic stickers and Lazarides letter from Catawiki*
__________
Regarding the eBay tenner itself, there follows a cropped area (focusing on Diana's head) of the photo you just provided.
Unfortunately, the resolution isn't high enough to confirm whether that tenner is authentic:
For future reference, below is an in-focus, high‑res photo of Diana's head from a genuine Di‑Faced Tenner. The photo was taken in natural light and zooms in ever‑closer on the left eye (her right).
Note in particular the individual CMYK dots (cyan, magenta, yellow and black) that are visible from the offset lithography printing process.
These dots will not appear as clearly on counterfeit tenners produced by a digital printer:

Banksy £10 • Di-Faced Tenner, by nsd on Apr 30, 2022 0:01:23 GMT 1, The issue I have is I can't be sure that even the photos they have on the ebay listing is what I will receive, even if there's is a real one! Especially as they listed the same item a few weeks prior. Bowing out of this one - I may pull the trigger from Laz at some point for 2k GBP.

You have good reason at least to be wary.
Of potential concern is something I just noticed with the eBay-listing photos (item number 403612144862*, for which you were the winning bidder on 26 April, UK time).
These show a framed tenner and Lazarides letter that are different to the ones featured in the post-auction follow-up photos you received from the eBay seller.
Listing photo for eBay item number 403612144862 (plus cropped close-up)
Two follow-up photos sent by the eBay seller (2nd photo rotated and cropped)
__________
Also worth considering is the feedback dimet57 has received as an eBay seller.
Their feedback shows 13 previous sales, all in the last six months, and all for postcards with sale prices ranging from £1.00 to £1.80*.
Now, that isn't damning per se, but it would be consistent with the type of framework typically put in place in the lead up to an exit scam.

Banksy £10 • Di-Faced Tenner, by nsd on Apr 30, 2022 10:35:36 GMT 1, You're very right, the stickers aren't quite in the same spacing. Great eye.
I did question the history of small purchases, they said 'I've sold higher value, they just never left feedback'. Huge flag!
This might be a stupid question (I'm new to all this), but the Lazarides store is a/the trusted source, is that correct? It feels like if I want one of these it's probably not a good idea to try and save a couple hundred bucks if I can never be sure of the origins or authenticity...

Legit and authentic ones are still out there, but you’ve got to keep doing what your doing, due diligence is imperative for these. (As with any work that lacks official provenance). In regards to the Laz store, you pay the premium for a guaranteed legit one.

Ideally in the UK.
I have a few pieces I could trade,
DM if interested

Banksy £10 • Di-Faced Tenner, by Elephants and Castles on Jul 1, 2022 1:40:18 GMT 1, Hello Everyone,
I'm helping my friend sell x3 of his single Di-Faced Tenners that he has acquired over the years from different sources. (These are not ones from Laz with COA but from the POW Days).
Happy to give extremely close-up's of them to show the CMYK 4 color Process and any other info. needed.
Located in LA and seller is looking for $1300 each inc. shipping.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask me. Cheers
