More than likely not but at least it was found in the shed and not a old draw :)

Have a look at his sold items list. Has recently also sold two 1930 pennies! UNBELIEVABLE
That's more than most coin dealers.
Now why would he sell them on eBay for less than $10k each instead of sending them to auction? (Rhetorical question, no need to answer as I already have my own answer.)
