I figured that this guy didn't know and, giving him benefit of the doubt, hoped he would remove the listing; so I messaged him this --

Hello,

This is a well known modern fake. It is from the "Slavey Studio" and was originally published in the Bulletin for Counterfeits (IAPN BOC Vol 11, No. 1) in 1986

regards,
Victor

but (not surprising) received no response and the coin sold
