I don't see any red flags other than "Husbands Estate" which could be legitimate. She has 14 coins listed; none of them have great images. I would ask for better images before I bid, but 12 other people so far think is is legit.
It makes me suspicious, but I cannot condemn it. TD

I purchased a 1896 Morgan from this "Widow" back in June 07 if I remember correctly. What I bought was an authentic but HEAVILY POLISHED , very shiny , very circulated morgan that I could have bought from a junk tray at any coin show. What is more egregious on my part is that I actually left positive feedback due to "fast shipping"
I would like to formally apologize for anyone who may have subsequently bought from her based on my feedback. I highly suspect that "She" is a volume reseller who knows exactly what "she" is doing.

I seem to remember poeple on this board investigating a "widow" 5-6-7 years ago. Turns out no one by that name (whatever it was) hd passed away recently. (of course, I'm not saying this is the same lady)
Given the no refurn, PO box, and new PO box number, and poor pics, I wouldn't bid.

If it's not the same person, it certainly someone using the same modus operandi.

Heck, if its legit and problem free then it will be a great deal.
That and she has a feedback history of two counterfeits plus a no return policy.

3800 bucks for a raw coin, from a seller with that kind of feedback?
