Just won this in an auction. It was unattributed. There was a 42/1 in the same auction. Seller's pics. Winning Bid $40 + $7.20

Sharper close-up needed, but it looks promising.

This is the third 42/1 FS101 in the last couple of days.
Yes it is the real deal.

Well done!!!! The terrible photos sure made it hard for the customers to recognize this. Somebody else probably saw the overdate because $40 for a common merc is unheard of.

Looks promising from these pictures, be sure to post pictures of your own when you received it.
And may grade XF-40.

It does look like you got it. Watching for when you get the coin. Hope to break out the party hats. I like when we have strings of nice finds like this.

When you receive the coin see if you can match die markers. Also weight it. http://varietyvista.com/06%20Mercur...2DDDO001.htm

I had an item take 14 days to ship recently. Shipping times seem to have been slower.
