The bike seems to be missing the downtube and top tube decals that are typically on a Coppi like this. Also, I doubt they came in white--they were typically pearl grey. The NR crankset also seems to be newer, I'd bet that Coppi came with a Nervar Star crankset.

I'd pay $600 for the bike. $2200 just just dreaming.
If you get a phone number, google it. It will give you some idea on how the seller operates.
