We hear stories like this all the time here. Most likely you’ll expend a bunch of effort and recover nothing. It sucks, but buying valuables from unknown sources is risky. As many others have said, your best option is to contact your bank or the issuer of the card.
Don’t give up on silver dollars. They’re fun to collect. Get to know some legit dealers and you can make it a fun hobby for a lifetime.
Also, ignore grumpy people. The world is full of them.

Well I’m not gonna stick around when someone is just going to badger me for no particular reason other than just to do it. I do appreciate all the advice you gave me though and I thank you for that
No one is badgering you. You asked for advice. We gave it. I didn't know we were only supposed to give advice you liked.
I have been making this same point about libelous posts for years. Every time someone publicly names a dealer, eBay seller, or forum member. You may disagree, but it's a valid point that has nothing to do with you.

I have contacted my local police department and I am just waiting for the officer to get to my house but in the meantime I thought I would at least ask for advice and let people know who and where I got this from
The who and where might be a violation of forum rules. You can't simply make unsubstantiated accusations.
And the comment I made about not wanting anyone to comment unless they are giving helpful advice seems like pertains to you because everything you have posted is justCriticizing anything I say. How have I push your buttons in anyway or upset you
By naming the individual seller. It's a pet peeve of mine.

Sorry for your troubles. Tips for future purchases:
1) Do NOT use a debit card.
2) Stay away from websites like that. They are well known for selling counterfeits of all sorts (coins, purchases, etc).
Good luck getting your money back.
