Seller is marvijacob-8 for future reference. I contacted them and we'll see how they respond. Knowingly posting a "sample" coin gets them a black...
Looks like the same CC reverse posted elsewhere here. [ATTACH]
It is illegal under the federal Hobby Protection Act without COPY. Ebay prohibits all fake and replica coins regardless of whether they are marked...

I'm not seeing much of any off center strike. I've seen this "railroad wheel" rim damage posted before and I think the consensus was that it was...
I'm curious what you're emphasizing with this zoom. Is there a die crack or clashing there?
