Maybe he will get a serious offer from the FBI.

That's a screaming bargain!

I was wondering what to do with that extra $125,000 laying around.

I knew a guy in Louisville who used to make these things. He's made hundreds if not thousands of them over the years. They are made by altering the 0 on a 1910 coin.

If you altered a 1903 the spacing of the digits would not be right

Looks like a nice 125k hole filler until you can afford to upgrade to one of the proofs

You know, in all seriousness, I have a copy of the 1956 Blue Book by R. S. Yeoman, and back then it listed the 1913 nickel as having six known specimens.

If you are thinking the coin this guy is trying to sell is a counterfeit - your are right.

But, the other five 1913 Liberty nickels are counterfeits too. So, maybe it is worth $125,000+ as long as it is not an altered date coin.

I'd like to see some high resolution images of this coin.

I don't know if any of you have tried to call the posted telephone number for the seller of this 1913 Liberty nickel, but I called three times. Each time someone answers saying someing inaudible and then hangs-up. It did not sound like a recording.
