Of course it doesn't look like a proof, it is a plain UNC.
But the box is of a proof coin;-)

I am going to ask him which coin I get if I buy his auction. I will let you
know the result.

I was 99% sure about that but now we have the confirmation;-)
A childish scam, if the buyer understands he was scammed the seller will say
"ah, sorry, it was a honest mistake, I messed up the pictures, here, have
your money back"!..

Che gente!

He did get back to me claiming he made a mistake on the picture. He assured
me that the item was covered by a return policy if not satisfied. I decided
not to give it a try. The auction has since closed with a winner.

Wise decision...
