What this a typo? Because that is a deal I would take every time! 700 of any Lincoln Cent for just over half of face value is instant profit!

Two years ago I bought a Lincoln Cent collection from a guy on Yahoo auctions for $1100. It was complete through 1966 and included the 22 no D weak reverse. The 09S VDB was ANACS F-12 and all the keys were F-VF. I thought this was a steal. He had a complete IHC collection for $1150 but someone else got that.

Umm...yeah, I imagine that was snatched up immediately!  (I hope the 1877 was scrutinized carefully)

For a split second there, I thought you were about to confess as being the buyer!

 While I'm not one to overspend, I smell a good deal there. Providing of course, the 1877 and 1909-S were legit.

The best deal? How about an MS65 1922D Lincoln for an even trade (3 CN worth about $130): Image Insert: Image Insert:

BadThad--wow, I'd say that's a nice strike/grade for a 22-D!

I would have to say this Large Cent is my best deal. I put this coin in with the forum group submission to PCGS & it came back as a MS64BN. Even counting submission costs I've got less than 1/3 of market value in it.

Love this topic Ive been dieing to tell this story. About 8 Months ago a coin dealer called me and asked if I was still collecting Jefferson nickles? I said yes and he told me to stop in. He had bought 3 Peanut jars filled with J Nickles he said he would sell them for face value he estimated $20.a jar and I bought them. Best coin hunt I ever had. They were all 1938-1962. I filled all my holes in my collection except for the 1939D & 1950D no error coins. 18 War Nickels,1 no date Buffalo, 1 1921 VF Buffalo, 4 38D, 3 39S. I saved some of the harder to find 40-50 dates. Cashed the rest in for total of $63. Now I am so mad that I cashed them in but my wife was nagging me. Now that she sees what people are paying on ebay she doesn't nag me anymore.
