Ok, So this is really strange. I just received a notification from ebay of an 1874 S Trade dollar that is no longer available. When I clicked on the link it took me here,
https://www.ebay.com/itm/1874-S-Sil...154402104976

But this auction ended on April 11th! I purchased this same exact coin (not aware of it being sold previous) on April 19th? What is weird is the first sale the coin sold for $276.20 with 17 bidders and I bought it for BIN of $150.00

Strange indeed - different photos of the same coin so not a case of a stolen photo. And seems you got a great deal!!

EDIT: After a bit of thought - how's this for a theory - They bought the coin from the first seller (who doesn't state the coin was cleaned) and when they got it complained to the seller and instead of returning they agreed on a partial refund. The buyer then didn't want a cleaned coin then sold it BIN and made a profit over the entire 2 transactions? Well at least it sounds good in theory
