    Pay your money and take your chances.... I would not place a bid on that auction without direct contact with the seller and a revision to his offering. Cheers, RickO

    If you get the MS68 Morgan it's a good deal.

    True, but if you get an MS65 (the grade in the listing title) or the ungraded piece shown in the additional pictures, it’s a horrible deal. And in terms of the odds, I’m making the ungraded piece the heavy favorite.

    If you don't get everything in the photos (unless explicitly stated in the listing), you have recourse with eBay.

    EDIT: That said, I'd be contacting the seller in advance for clarification were I interested.

    I just sent a message to the seller, I will post the response if there is one.

    The image of the MS-68 was hijacked from another listing.

    Since the image was stolen, there's definitely some skulduggery going on. It seemed probable based on all other indicators.

    The seller has zero feedback. Come on guys. This is an I.Q. test. :D

    I reported this one to ebay and to the seller of the real coin, it wasn't removed.
    I sent a message to the fraudulent seller, there was no response. Relisted again. :/

    Edited to add link to seller after item is removed.

    Done.

    I am not sure how efficient ebay is under pandemic rules. We'll see.
