    It isn't that bad at all, it depends on the coin's grade.
    My guess would be it is an AU, with some pretty crappy pics, if that is the case then you overpaid, by a long shot.
    If it is a high grade mint state coin, then you got a steal. (Very unlikely though)

    At least you learned your lesson.. :D

    Look at the brighter side of all this. You could have been bidding on a 1913 Liberty Head Nickel with two heads. And all for a thousand dollars.
    Or you could have bid on a coin in China and won but have to go pick it up yourself.
