Thanks to all for pointing that out and for notifying the eBay seller.
I periodically check eBay listings for such things, but I was away for a few days.

Perhaps if he said "Not near the quality of the fantasies produced by Daniel Carr" that would have been acceptable (and more accurate, too.)
I remember sellers would sometimes state, "not PCGS" or not NGC" on coins graded by third tier outfits. eBay stopped allowing it and I'd suppose using Daniel Carr's name in a listing without featuring anything by the artist might draw the same discontent.

That's not even a fantasy date!
It happens with Gallery Mint items as well.
Buyer beware.
Rude and more importantly, fraud.
Definitely fraud.... I hope @dcarr sees this and lodges a complaint with ebay... Cheers, RickO

Seller contacted and listing ended by him. It was an honest mistake on his part.

What in the heck was that? Never seen one like it before.
Collector of what ever looks good to me today.
