My question wasn´t directed to you and yes it does matter, i am trying to establish whether Hassan R owns this coin or not. Buying a coin from Ebay when uncertain of autenticity is as you know a risky venture.

If the buyer does not know the coin is genuine and/or does not know the expertise or honesty of the seller, then DO NOT BUY. We want the buyer to be a wise collector. Know the coin or know the seller, or do not buy.
