No, someone has simply tooled the 1 off of the coin. It was altered after it was struck.
Actually if the can get the sucker I mean collectors to hoard them like they did the state quarters they make so much money it makes the money...
S-260 no doubt. It is a large fraction that makes it 257 thru 261 or 265 It's a small date so 265 is out The gap between the ends of the wreath...

I would call CS at the mint and talk to them. Changing you credit card information on file at the mint DOES NOT change the card information on...

If you go to the link they have specifically for reporting fraudulent coin auctions they give you 10,000 characters. Just how wordy are you? :)
Step one, win the lottery.
