Dubious Auction?

Searching for a 1850-O $20 example I came across this dubious auction?

Thoughts?

Hey, it's from the town I'm currently living in... I should send them an e-mail and ask if I can come view the coin!

I think that coin just got off the boat......
They don't just fake the PCGS slabs.......

You could always report it as it violates Ebay picture rules (no reverse pic of the slab). Then have
llafoe take a personal look at it and buy it for you (if it's the real deal). Save ebay fees, Paypal fees
and have a new pair of eyes look at it.
Looks a bit rough for AU55 to my eyes.

I know some details can get lost in longer threads but this one? Are you guys serious? This same coin was sold 10 days ago for $9K and I'm fairly certain I linked it above...I'd suggest eyeglasses to improve grading ability...

My guess is that the coin doesn't physically exist at the location indicated.

I messaged martinibrothers, they confirmed that their original buyer still had the coin, reported and Ebay pulled it...
