I messaged the guy from this listing telling (informing) him of his listing errors - he wrote back thanking me for the correct information and took down the listing..

His 1926 Australian sixpence is actually not bad value at $5 for a .925 silver coin, but even from these appalling photos I wouldn't describe the coin as Uncirculated! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284802701781

Always good to reflect and consider.
I had an experience where a purchase (a new Dansco album) was inadvertently sent to the wrong address 1000+ miles away. I informed the seller and provided the tracking information. The seller immediately refunded my $$ and sent a replacement Dansco at no cost. Wow.
