Crook!
Proof and uncirculated coins look, and are, different.

eBay Copyright Thieves
Many eBay vendors use our coin photographs to sell inferior quality coins on eBay. These eBay members are dishonest and should be avoided.
We believe eBay profits from IP rights infringements (copyright theft), and does so knowingly, only removing infringing items reluctantly, if at all.

What's Wrong?
We invest a great deal of time, effort, and cost into creating some of the best photographic coin images on the internet. We strongly object when lazy and dishonest people decide to use them without a by your leave or thanks, doing so in competition with us.
Copyright theft is dishonest. We recommend you avoid doing business with dishonest dealers.
This particular eBay seller not only stole our high quality copyright photograph of a silver proof Britannia coin, but failed to inform potential buyers that the set in the photograph was not the one he owns, or that they will be bidding on. This is deception.
Sadly, it is also typical of eBay!
The special finish on the proof makes it look far superior to that on the ordinary bullion coins, so that anybody bidding on his item expecting to get the perfect coin in our photograph would be rightly disappointed, and feel cheated.

Price
He was asking a starting price of £10 for his coin.
