Also if it has been cleaned wouldn't ANACS have listed that in the slab description?

You can tell that the pictures came from ebay because of the small symbol in the lower right corner. The OP states in a later post that the holder does specify "Cleaned".

Quote:How would you know they came from ebay? The little "camera" icon in the bottom right corner is ebay's characteristic, added to all pics they host.

I am not trying to scam anyone and if I wanted to sell the coin I would do so another way. I wanted to know because I was afraid I had been "taken" and when I saw this forum, I knew that I would get honest answers. I didn't know that the coin was a die 2,VF-20, authentic or cleaned until I sent it to ANACS and I sent it to them on the advice of a friend. All I wanted to know was if it was worth keeping because, if not, I would return it. I do consider myself an honest person and just needed confirmation on this. This was the last penny I needed to fill my collection of pennies from 1909 through 2007. I have them all and I wanted to be sure this penny was good enough to include in that. My collection was mostly given to me and I did and still do not know much about prices and such and that is why I look on the internet to get information and then I saw this forum and thought it would be good to get more info. To learn. I thank you all for your input. You were indeed helpful.

How much did you pay for it? That'd be a good determining factor if you should return it or not.

Return where to the ebay seller? after being sent to ANACS? I check ebay completed list and this coin is not in the list from december 5, so must have been auctioned before that date. 1. you were afraid you were taken? if you got this coin from ebay and you sent it to ANACS, what are you afraid of? 2. you wanted to be sure this coin was good enough? So, You check this forum, Why is ANACS nots good enough?

The last penny needed to complete a collection and you don't know if you want to keep it?

He should return it, he needs a 1922 CENT, not a penny.

I sent it to ANACS on the advice of a friend and to determine if it was authentic, and it is, but they do not give you a price on the coin and I wanted to know if what I paid for it was good or bad considering it was "Cleaned". I thought someone here would know an approximate value of such a coin and then I would know if what I paid was good or bad. That is all I really want to know. Yes, I do have the 1909s vdb and the 1914D. Like I stated before, most of the collection was given to me and I do not know if VF20 is a good rating.

Again, what did you pay for the coin? Did ANACS give it a VF20 cleaned as you stated

Yes, how much did you pay for the coin and are your other coins in better condition than this one?
