I'm not sure I follow. It's not really "helping his business" if I buy the coins, file Buyer Protection, get the money right back, and neg him....
That's a semi-key date. It's too bad about the scratches.
100% fake. The 6 looks nothing like the real thing. If you haven't looked at the reference images jloring linked, go do that now....
