Absolutely not. Why would the seller not have it graded then he could sell it for 2600 doubling his selling price to you unless he already knows what it is

I wouldn't do it unless I could see the tail feathers on the reverse of the Sacagawea dollar coin. If the tail feathers are detailed then that would be on heckuva buy. If the tail feathers are not detailed then it is an ordinary dollar coin and I'd give $1.01 for them both. |

Only if I could check for the die marker on the obverse. I got $3500 for my coins, but I knew it was the Detailed Tailfeather prototype before I sent it off.   ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

Do you have a full image of the front of the card? The first images do not look right. The dollar and cent card is longer than the cent only card and the plastic is rounded at both ends. The OP's images are square. I think someone took a Cheerios Cent card and put a dollar and cent under a different type of plastic cover. It really looks wrong to me. Here's the Cheerios cent on a card. The plastic on the OP's images is not the same.  ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T!

I do believe y'all have pointed out some very good points, it does look like a cent with different plastic (not textured) and the location of where the plastic ends on the card is not right on the mintage text like the true dollar and cent coin. I'm learning a lot thanks to this forum. I don't like dishonest sellers...

It just seemed wrong. Who would post a picture like that trying to sell them.

Yokozuna has it. I see the penny package, with a dollar added to it. Besides these can't be rare, there are 11 on ebay and 15 on Etsy, right now?  I wrote to Etsy to complain again, how can someone have this coin and 20 people have it in their cart? Is that supposed to make me jump into buying a misrepresented coin with fuzzy photos? COA, is that on the back of these? |

To answer the OP's question. NO!

the packaging shown in the pictures is wrong. it should have the grid pattern from the heat sealers used on the card and it should be sealed as close as can be to the coins. this is tampered with and likely an outright fraud. you should stay clear of that one!
they were meticulous on the placement and the sealing of the packaging on these coins. then went the extra mile to make sure the coins couldn't pop out o fthe card and get lose in the box in my opinion. the plastic might not be straight, but it should be sealed to heck with a grid pattern as close to the coins as can be. there wasn't a variation. In your pictures, I do not see the grid pattern in the plastic. it looks like fraud and misrepresentation to me looking to scam you. Sorry the packaging is WRONG. Please do not pay $1300 for $1.01.
