https://www.ebay.com/itm/305534036725What can be done about this scam ebay listing? The title says "1803 $1 Draped Bust Dollar PCGS VF30 Small 3*", the description has A PCGS number that matches the title, but the photos (both obverse only) are of an 1803 half, in a tampered or fake holder (no core except some residue), with a real label for an 1803 AU50 dollar! No reverse photos. All this for only 2K, lol.

Adding a picture of this "coin" so that folks can learn from it when the auction is taken down:  "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

Looks like an 1803 small 3 half in F-VF. Where's the reverse?
The lettering looks like a cast mold and the 3 is misplaced. Poorly centered in the holder. Not for me, even for a $5 best offer.

Fake half dollar. How can a VG-Detailed coin have luster? It was cast with that amount of detail.
