It looks like someone is about get stuck with a really expensive mistake. I'm certainly no expert not even close but this coin doesn't look legit to me. It kind of looks like you can see the outline of Lincoln's bust and some of the motto on the reverse.

Oof, that's a fake if I've ever seen one.

Terrible mistake by the bidder, a $900 mistake.

Just look at the smile on Abe's face. Definitely fake.

The biggest give away? The LIBERTY:

Note the rotation on the LIBERTY area. Fake is clockwise North, real is counter clockwise South.
