My suggestion would be to chill on it. Not to give this guy the benefit of the doubt...but for you to doubt your own thoughts. Under stress we dont think as clear and rational as normal. Irrational thoughts make more sense and we decide based on feeling more than fact or evidence. It easy to jump to conclusions.
You trusted him enough to front him the coin. Dont keep second guessing your own decision yet. Nothing at all will be gained by that and youll just drive yourself nuts. Wait till morning to freak out hehe.
Seriously chill on it till morning then call him up after youve had sleep and breakfast. Trust your judgement till then because there are other explainations than you got ripped off. It cant be dealt with now so put it aside if you can.
(that was long winded :) )
