The only thing that's a fact is that it an " s " mint. Other than that it's a crapshoot.Not gradeable. Save it until the price of silver hits the...
Have you tried using the " dispute console " on EBAY ? It's there to help with problems such as these. I hope you didn't leave a positive feedback...
Looks to be a MS66 to me , only a few minor spots to keep it from 67 unless they are on the holder.
Maybe it's just my opinion but circulated coins should be fairly accurate to grade by most TPGS if they use the standard stuff to look for...
Looks about PR65 to me , a few photos show possible cameo but I don't think it would make it.
