Default Question about Rare Coin Auctions

A friend has a Dutch coin from 1646 that was found in a shipwreck off
South East Australia. It is a unique coin. No other has been found
like it. He believes it to be worth $90,000 because the same coin from
1645 is worth that. He wants to auction it on eBay.

However, he is afraid because of stories he has heard about eBay
regarding coin auctions.

Do you have any suggestions or advice?

Forget eBay for truly rare coins.

I would recommend Heritage or Stax for this coin.

If it were the same date would it be worth $90K? Possibly. Different
date? Without looking, the answer is no.
Sure hope I didn't rise to troll bait.

How many trimes does a troll take when one is trying to traverse his
territory?
