Seller never mentioned the 1799 date. Looks to be a nice fine if not VF20 coin. I didn't notice it till after the auction. ... https://www.ebay.com/itm/1797-1806-...047675.l2557

Yes, that is a manipulated coin. Definitely not an S-188 or S-189.

At the end of the day, the buyer paid approximately 8-10 times more than the entire lot is worth.
It is a real pity for the buyer.

On another thread/forum it was identified as a 1798 S-187.
