Obviously 1885 T$1 was proof only with a mintage of 5 coins with no business strikes at any of the mints. If this is a real bidder, they are in for a big surprise. https://www.ebay.com/itm/374117467812IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Both bidder and seller have zero feedback. It's a clown car.

Ohh boy, what a fake counterfeit we have here! I know genuine ones (you said 5 known) are incredibly valuable and are probably all certified by TPGs...
