Glad you vetted this out and it was caught BEFORE your money got tied up.

Although much better than it used to be, ebay and online shopping in general, can still be a Wild West show!

A Happy Thanksgiving indeed!

Glad you got out of that one NS. We need to keep an eye on this seller to see if he puts it up for auction again.

This listing had so many red flags that Helen Keller would have picked up on it. The seller clearly states that the coin is in Mint condition contrary to the OP stating otherwise. A terrible photo, no feedback and a coin if slabbed would be worth a few thousand more. To top it off it is being sold by a stay at home 29 year old mother of a 9 and 1 year old.
A foolish person and his money are soon parted. The seller is about to prove it again as the coin is relisted and receiving bids.

Here is the link to the new listing:353772050040

Maybe Bobby can get the seller shut down.

I'm very late to this thread (lots of stuff going on lately keeping me away), but I'm very impressed at how this progressed and the work done by many forum members to assist the OP. And great idea, @numismatic student, on having the picture taken with a number you'd given him. I'll have to remember that one!
