I tend to agree that it is a fake. The denticles look closer to the coin's edge, and I agree with the others: the chin is just, well, different -- so different that no die variety would ever account for it. It changes the whole look of Ms. Liberty.

Where did you get the picture of the mint state example?
1. poor picture of obverse makes it difficult to see details
2. no obverse picture provided
3. 2x2 holder looks newly stapled, bright white, and marked with a felt-tip......from an estate sale????
Conclusion:
99% chance it's el fako.
It makes you wonder how someone can operate on such a completely different plane of moral homeostasis.
And because they so easily, frequently and repeatedly do so, what other sub-moral behaviours are they capable of or do they indeed already commit in their pursuit of money? Drug smuggling? Terrorism?

The bottom coin inside the white flip is a fake and a bad one at that. Not even close on the bottom coin.

Hasn't he been turned in numerous times?

Yes PJD1966 Patricia J. Donnelly, has been reported NUMEROUS times for scamming and having shills. Ebay ignores it because of the "Power Seller" (Power Screwer) status. PJD1966 is the "BLACK DEATH" to eBays integrity.
This seller has recently started listing some of the "COPY" replicas we've been reporting, more in line with eBay and the Hobby Protection Act's guidelines, but other coins like the one above is harder to spot and prove.
Bear in mind many of the people she deals with also suck up their losses and don't give any feedback, leave neutral feedback, or mutually agree to withdraw. A lot of people get hurt so bad they quit eBay. Others who try to stop her get NARU'D. At least one of our own I know of.
Here is a quick link to her neutral and negative feedback she received:
PJD1966 BAD FEEDBACK FROM BUYERS
and
a link for the Negative feedback she's given:
PJD1966 NEGATIVE FEEDBACK TO BUYERS
She apparently one of eBay's "finest" but doesn't "LOOK ALL GOOD TO ME" either.
If I only had a dollar for every VAM I have...err...nevermind...I do!!

She didn't list it in the large cents category because she knows large cent experts would report her.

Just checked my book on large cent varieties ... that thing
isn't even close to a real one.

I guess eBay may have started to do something about all the reports of fake coin auctions, at least with this infamous seller.
This listing (3960190686) has been removed by eBay or is no longer available. Please make sure that you've entered the item number correctly. If the item was removed by eBay, please consider this transaction canceled. If anybody contacts you to complete the sale, please ignore the request.

Apropos of the coin posse/aka caca: "The longer he spoke of his honor, the tighter I held to my purse."
The first clue is that "RARE" is written on the 2x2.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
