Seller posted terrible photos, but I bought this coin for $3. He advertised it as 1888, but I sincerely see a 3 at the end. Either way I think it's worth it, right?

Heck, I'd give $3 for every 1888 I could get, much less an 1883. If it's an 1883 it's more likely an impaired Proof.

I hope not! If it is I only lost 3 bucks so that's alright.

something's off here. The rim isn't fully formed and the date looks funky. Maybe it's the scans.

looks like a cast fake. Maybe we all just learned a $3 lesson.
