If the coin is sealed in the RAM packaging then it probably is authentic.
If it just slipped into the packaging it could simply be a coin that someone has put a dent in and added it to the card.
Not my cup of tea anyway :ok:

Now if I take the diameter of the coin in the second photo from the left and compare it to the third coin from the left, they are the same.

Now if I take the maximum width of the edge imprint on the 2nd coin from the left and compare it to the diameter of the incuse example on the coin third from the left, the diameter of the two items do not marry up.

The indent diameter is almost twice the size of the incuse sample.

Me thinks this is a fake and should be reported.

On my measurements, I wouldn't touch this example with a ten foot pole and never mind bidding on such rubbish.

Further, most of the press operators I have come across examine the coins immediately after they are stamped and I am sure that the press operator would not have allowed that coin to be given out.

But not only all of what Goldie said, but you can't see any of the Map of Australia in the indentation on the rim.
It sold for over $83 dollars.

Totally agree, absolute fake. Diameter, map outline all wrong.
If I were the mint rep being very diligent in my duties on the stall I would be really annoyed.
It is worth noting though that he did stamp these 'by eye' so the positions do vary slightly on the pre minted coins (not sure i like the idea of a stamp added after the initial minting).
These aren't sealed either and were in the slip in folders.

I think the words in listing say it all ....
"In original Royal Australian Mint bag it was sold in"
Seller has no idea about packaging and thinks that these are Mint Bags ... dumb as dogxxx and a fraud
