(I was the underbidder on this one.) NGC got it wrong, right?

I see a Proof.
(The seller calls it a Proof.)
NGC states it is Mint State.
(I think that is why the bid was higher than normal.)
Perhaps I am missing something?

Can you say "Mechanical error"?

Rampage

That went for good money. I should look through mine.

I'd figure the high bids were a combination of those people that like collecting mechanical errors and people not looking at the coin/description thinking they would be getting a good deal on a mint state 68 star.

Looks like a proof to me.

It's in Proof packaging. MS coins came in soft cello.

davewesen

it does have a NGC Price Guide Value of $275

does eBay still have that service to have NGC give opinion on authenticity?

Certainly appears to be a proof. I think the 'MS' is a mechanical error as stated above. Cheers, RickO
