The_Duke Pillar of the Community United States 1745 Posts	Posted 03/27/2010 08:39 am It looks like a VF-30 to me Report this Post to the Staff
AmericanMuscle Valued Member United States 101 Posts	Posted 03/28/2010 05:03 am I'm thinking VF-30, possibly VF-35. Report this Post to the Staff

j_h_s Pillar of the Community United States 1934 Posts	Posted 03/29/2010 08:25 am Do you know the history/provenance of that coin? Jim Report this Post to the Staff
Jim1953 Pillar of the Community United States 2600 Posts	Posted 03/29/2010 10:40 am I think Thad touched on it. I am worried about this coin. The tone is too consistent (AT) and looks more like it just came out of foil and can be eaten. Also, the rim at Liberty does not look correct to me. I would want to know a lot more about the coin.

timer Valued Member United States 129 Posts	Posted 03/29/2010 10:59 am Now that you mention it, it does look a little questionable. I was thinking about bidding on it on ebay but will probably pass after reading these comments. Thanks for the cautions. Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19969 Posts	Posted 03/29/2010 11:21 am If it's on ebay and not slabbed....it's probably counterfeit. I'll repeat this one more time: NEVER buy a key like this on ebay. Go to a dealer or a show and look at it in hand. It's just too much money to risk and seeing an important key date coin in hand is critical before you buy. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
Jim1953 Pillar of the Community United States 2600 Posts	Posted 03/31/2010 09:29 am Thad, is correct. With the proliferation of counterfeits, buying expensive coins on the bay is suicidal. They are getting better all the time and pics and lighting can hide many sins. So, unless you really trust the seller shop elsewhere. I much prefer Heritage and feel safer there. Give them a try.
