Seller has a nice coin, but, can you spot the major error in his listing?

He said over 98? Or that he put VF20?

Coin is the 15 star reverse, not the 13 star reverse that the seller noted. I get befuddled when someone puts up a $5000 coin and can't get a simple attribution like this correct.

Oops now I'm the one misreading, I believe the seller means 13 stars. Reverse, not reverse draped bust:-P
Feel free to call me Will.

Well for one thing it is a 15 star reverse. And in the item specifics he called it a VF-20 when it is slabbed as XF-45

There is no such word as "drapped". However, the seller probably meant the word "draped".

Definitely looks like a 15 star reverse to me.
