Definitely not! Your coin is rotated 90 degrees! Okay, done being facetious -- in addition to everything everyone else pointed out, the first thing I noticed was the detail in the feather shafts. Not the same. No big reveal so we can avoid the seller?

He's upset that I would accuse him of sending a different coin. He doesn't see a difference but he's willing to give a full refund and return shipping. He's even seen the pics.

So at least he's not trying to screw you over. Probably just a mistake, and he's in denial.

Here's the listing. Actually kinda glad he's taking it back as I overpaid a bit and was disappointed that I had actually clicked that last bid.

He thinks it's my lighting that makes the coin look different.

The lighting can make some aspects appear different, but I think there are too many that are different.

Yeah, lighting is a factor but, those differences are not lighting.

I'm glad they're willing to take it back. Maybe they'll learn something they can apply to future listings (like honesty and/or better organization of inventory).

Get your money back, and obviously don't do any future business with him again.

I've highlighted a few areas other than the denticles. Lighting can not account for these differences. There is no doubt that the coin you received is not the coin in the listing.

I won't even give the seller the benefit of the doubt. You were being played and it failed.

I think he thought it should have went for more and sent me one he felt was close but not as nice. I'll keep an eye out and see if he lists it again. Thanks everyone !
