Auction sold for $4000.00 so I guess someone else saw what I saw too. I did not bid because I wasn't sure as the seller's pics were a bit too blurry. Click on the link below then click on the picture under the words "The listing you're looking for has ended".

Did a little research on this, and buyer might be correct. There is a small Cud on the dentils over the E in UNITED. The rest is too blurry to see. Very unusual final bid. The second place bidder is probably ticked.

Kind of coin I'd never buy.

Could be OK judging from the date position, but I believe the S-3 designation was delisted by Snow a long time ago.

Yes. I saw the Cud too and a couple of days ago asked the seller for more pictures. They weren't much better than the ones in the auction. If it is an 1888/7 then the seller did okay and the buyer will do okay as this coin grades VF-30 or so.

I apparently know a lot less about IHC's than what I thought I did? I always thought a overdate such as this would be visible to the naked eye. I wouldn't give more than a buck or two for that coin if it were offered to me for sale. Perhaps I should have a professional go through all of my IHC's.

You absolutely should. There are a lot of collectible errors in the IHC series.
