    Possible.

    The subject seller has spotty-FB, and English seems a second language.

    Some of the China-MOB has their relatives in California and the Carolinas
    working the scams. The unmarked coins are appearing at many swap-meets
    and flea-markets.

    Buying raw coins on EBAY from strangers is not a good idea.

    I really don't see anything similar, when I just looked he had some NGC Franklins and Washingtons on the bottom.

    The coin looks OK, though I sneer at his hyperbole......
