Shouldn't it be struck as a copy? Will the next owner know? Or sell it as if?

They cause confusion all the time. There are numerous examples of such things. Any coin dealer is constantly fielding questions about continental dollar copies and the like that were sold in the 1960s
You've also got things like the Brashlow and New Haven't restrikes that have achieved acceptance in the hobby. Also, old electrotypes are heavily collected.
It's a counterfeit being sold on eBay. Not good for the hobby but it's nothing new.

No, counterfeits are very, very bad for the hobby.
