Looks like damage to me too.

It's been damaged definitely. It's PMD. I would report it.

Yes, yes--post-strike damage. Some of the seller's other items are curious as well.

You'll notice they carefully priced it at $2499 - ebay's stricter regulations regarding unslabbed coins trigger at $2500. Quote: Is it good old American Capitalism or should it be reported? It's good ol' fraud - because they claim it to be an error, when it isn't. You can't scrape a coin with a steel brush a few times, and claim it to be a valuable mint error when you know full well it isn't.

This coin keeps getting relisted. I saw it a few weeks ago, laughed and reported it to ebay.

It takes an act of God for ebay to remove these in my experience... if they only had someone who is "coin literate" on their staff, this stuff would go away... but they don't seem to care about this type of fraud.
