my weekly scan through the 2 Cent auctions on ebay in my never ending quest for certain variety of small motto 2 Cent as always has produced a small motto wannabe

I may be wrong but it sure looks like a large motto to me. I sent the seller the following question and eagerly await my reply.

'Hi
Might I inquire as to how you deduce this coin is the small motto variety? The D is the wrong shape the T does not almost touch the fold of the ribbon and the stem is missing from the leaves under the right of the motto. Please let me know what leads to to the conclusion that this is in fact a small motto variety?
I have a little experience with this series of coins and it looks like the large motto variety to me.
Regards
Richard

Looks like the seller was Duped
here is my reply

'Thank you for the info.
PLEASE NOTE ALL EBAYERS!
ATTENTION!!
I bought this at auction as the "SMALL MOTTO"
I have been made aware from a friendly Ebayer that it maybe the "LARGE MOTTO"!
There are MANY pictures for ALL to decide, including close-ups & bid APPROPRIATLY for themselves, there is well over 3 days left and I will accept any cancelled bids with this auction if anyone is unsure
Thank you & God Bless!
