I have reported it also. Its definitely fake for the reasons everyone else has pointed out, even though the price tells me not many are being fooled

Anybody consider mentioning it to this brand-new seller, or have we decided arbitrarily that he's a criminal and deserves no consideration?

He did list the weight. That deserves some credibility ;)

I emailed him earlier as well that the coin appeared fake when I checked his recent sold items and thought it may be possible he didn't know it was. He does get credit for listing the weight, yes.

Has anyone else noticed all his feedbacks come from his purchases and his one feedback as a seller is a Neutral?

The 1873 dime, quarter and half all came with and without arrows due to the change in weight that year. The Half Dime and dollar do not because rather than change the weight on those two coins they were discontinued in 1873.
Rest in Peace

I sent him an "ask a question" stating that this dollar is fake as none were minted with arrows at the date at 8:30 last night.

Nice to know he is honest, but it is too bad he is now out the money for that coin. Hopefully he didn't pay much for it.
