IMO, I blame the auctioner and the bidder on this one. Report this Post to the Staff

Errorcoins Member United States 703 Posts	Posted 11/18/2006 2:58 pm Before 2002, that size could get out. But this coin, look at the reverse, that's the first clue. Report this Post to the Staff

Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 11/18/2006 3:44 pm first clue of what? and I dont think you would have to worry about me bidding on a 1999 penny for almost $200.00 Report this Post to the Staff
Errorcoins Member United States 703 Posts	Posted 11/18/2006 6:53 pm On many fake errors, if you look at the reverse, there will be a "smashed" look as opposed to a "strong strike" that is present on many mint errors. IMO, It just doesn't look real. The seller may not know this is not a real error, imo. Why a private auction? Edited by Errorcoins 11/18/2006 6:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Only time I do "private auctions" is to protect the winnerss ID, but that I only do on veerrry expensive item(s). And by that, I mean expensive, I mean about 5G's & up usually--couple hundred? ain't shXt-- Edited by CiScO 11/18/2006 7:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 11/18/2006 7:34 pm I undetsand what you are saying, because every other time the coin is struck (making the coin capped on the Obverse or reverse die in worse shape) it has another coin under or over it and not coming in contact with the other die so most do not have any details of but one die (the one it is capped on) but I am not sure I would automatically say this one is a fake Report this Post to the Staff
