There's a home for everything-even this 1847 liberty seated dollar.

Hello, someone paid $125.50 for this 1847 liberty seated dollar !!. I mean like, wow, if I got this coin in a collection, it would immediately go into the melt bin!! Appears that it was run through a thrasher or an old mechanical corn husker a few times. It is so bad that PCGS couldn't even holder it. Still, someone wants it for their collection-but $125.50, isn't that a bit much? Maybe someone putting together a worst possible type set?--just in case a registry opportunity comes along?

First, how do you know that it's real?
Second, I love this line in the OP:
"It is so bad that PCGS couldn't even holder it."
