I looked up the cert. # and it matches, but it shows where the correct coin was sold at Heritage recently that is not the coin on Ebay.

The front of the insert looks very convincing, not the coin or the reverse of the insert.
The seller said he’d end the listing and followed through.

Listing ended... good job folks!
and an obvious fake too
Wow, what an obvious fake.
I pity the collector who can't tell within 5 seconds that the coin is totally bogus.

Oof, that's a bad one. Haven't seen too many of these fake PCGS holders with Trade Dollars in them. More commonly seen with Morgans.
It went poof
As I mentioned previously, it was the seller who ended the listing.
