Me too!
I have only been studying and collecting coins for a bit over 45 years, and have seen a few error coins in that time. I don't claim to know it...
Notice how your coin is bent and bulged, there is no way it could have come from the mint this way. The dies would leave the coin perfectly flat....
Thanks for the pictures, wish I could get there often enough to see some of these lesser known places.

Please do post a pic!
Certainly the seller could have done a better job on the listing, but I see nothing actually wrong. He never says how many silver dollars there...
I have one in much lower grade but still good eye appeal, at almost $4500 less I am happy with the trade off!

With the better pictures , it isn't even close.
