This makes me very angry; some complete jerk taking advantage of an inexperienced collector. Broadstruck is right, we'll loose a potential error collector because of this.
I hope the buyer returns the coin - and I hope eBay blocks the seller from ever listing anything in the future. Did anyone try and notify eBay that this was a bogus error coin ?

Wow.. someone paid $280 for that fake coin.... incredible. And when someone tells them the truth, they will be furious... with the one that tells them. Cheers, RickO
I wonder if I could get a list of the bidders. I have a bridge in Arizona....
I used to be somebody, now I'm just a coin collector. Recipient of the coveted "You Suck" award, April 2009 for cherrypicking a 1833 CBHD LM-5, and April 2022 for a 1835 LM-12, and again in Aug 2012 for picking off a 1952 FS-902.
Not as Described, Listed as an error which it is not. Should be able to get a refund, but I think the bider need a refund from the one handing out brains, or perhaps he missed that day.
