I dunno, but I'm pretty sure he would have attempted multiple sales at once like most shady sellers do on ebay, best to put a bunch of bait out rather than a single coin over a longer span.

Just my 2 Cents.

I'm amazed that no one bid more than that. Usually these auction sites are pretty heavily traveled, especially in the coin area. I never see stuff going cheap. Maybe a decent deal here and there, but no obvious steals. The popcorn is out.

Thanks guys. I'll make sure to snap some pics later. It looks like the reverse was cleaned a VERY long time ago, so now it's just got that very faint shimmer to it, but, I sure as heck can't complain for $200. I've cherrypicked some expensive varieties in my time, but I wholeheartedly believe this is my best purchase, even if it isn't my "most profitable ever"
Rest in Peace
