[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 2518482, member: 13307"]This is the exact coin I "won" on eBay...now the example for the variety on PCGS website [URL='http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/145620']HERE[/URL]. Was at $9 until the last ten seconds of the auction, when someone tried to snipe me out (except I'd expected that.) Paid for it immediately. Next day, was marked shipped. Got a call on Monday from the seller. Told me different parts of three different stories that didn't line up or make sense when added together. Was obvious he was lying, and I told him so. He responded that he was a millionaire who didn't need to bother with people like me. Also that he didn't care, because there was nothing I could do about it...so he blocked me from bidding on his future shady auctions. Contacted eBay and their response was complete indifference (I mean, he's a much, much bigger fish on eBay than I am.) $20-25k is my estimate of what the coin could have gone for at auction.

Here is PCGS' writeup of the variety: [ATTACH=full]536641[/ATTACH] There used to be a thread here on CoinTalk discussing it - either it's been deleted or I just can't find it. Think I'm making it up? Oh...I'm not. I have proof. I've blocked out the eBay seller's name and location so Peter doesn't get in trouble (or get angry at me.)
