There's even a positive feedback from the buyer. The buyer has enough sales for me to believe that it was a complete stranger who purchased it, and not the seller's alternate account or something.

Very, very, very fishy. He's got an 1885 Nickel up, and he knows exactly what that's worth - he's asking $340 for it. No room for ignorance on his part.

Barber dimes have rounded 3's, not angled ones, and you can see the angled top. You had me looking, though.

There's PMD right at the top of that last digit. 1893-O for sure. The shape of the bottom loop compared to a 5 gives it away.
