Are my eyes deceiving me? I think not.

Two auctions. One ended on Feb 14 and the other started on Feb 14.
When I look at both coins they look identical. Something is not right
here.

I'm not sure what it is, but I agree that something may be afoul with
this deal.

The little tick behind the nose suggests identity to me.

Only thing I can think of is either

1] New seller lives around the block from previous seller or

2] New seller thinks he can turn a profit off the win, uses a different I.D.
to run the auction with pics from other auction before he even has the coin.

I enquired about this interesting series of events, and will post back if he
replies.

The mark on the cheek look identical, as do the rim rubs on the bottom
of the reverse. Definitely looks like the same coin.

I'm not up on Indians, and I'm no expert at any others. But I am curious.
Is it even MS? Is that series known for some weak strikes? Looks like the
tips of the feathers and the hair near neck are worn. Or do Indians
typically look like this?

A conclusion is simply the place

True - I was thinking of possibilities that would make it half way legit.
Theres not much to stop anyone from running an outright fraud auction if they
were so inclined.

I also emailed the seller and have not received a response. I doubt I
will since it is obvious that is not his coin. The buyer of the coin
looks to be assembling a set of Indian cents so it is not item 2. I
too think he borrowed the picture to sell a same date Indian cent.

Looks like ebay got a whiff of fraud, as the auction was taken down.
