Quote: Not to burst your bubble but off centers don't go anywhere near those prices you are mentioning. With all respects A coin A car A house A ... anything...... Is worth exactly ........ what anyone will willing to pay for, at "that" moment in time. Averages, .. book values ... lists of last "actual" sales, "real" sales, and ====>Appraisals, won't stand up to 2 people just buying and selling. Case in point, I bought a coin off ebay ... sold it for more than triple what I paid for it. No insult intended ... No insult given.

Domain- If you read my full post you would see I changed my original thoughts...I just don't erase stuff when I edit a post. Something is worth what one person is willing to pay...but good luck selling everything for what you paid for it...value is tender (pun intended)

Just about prices; yes, $80 is a bit high. check ebay SOLD prices to get an idea of what a coin is worth, not the sky high prices people list things for. I have a 1956D Wheat cent off center just as much as yours that I picked up for $30.

May I please add this, In business matters ... In my endeavors, including hobbies ... I like to let situations to be both fun and not too costly. At this moments in time I have bought about 99.9% of my stuff at face. Hard to loose much at that rate. To carry this conversation to the ultimate end, when I die, If my wife takes my Ikes to the bank window, she will get about what I paid for it. A buck. No insults intended. No insults given Please let's be friends. OK?

robbudo Sounds like you got a good deal on that 56D. Sometimes Auctions are weird, I've seen some that were buy it now for lets say 20 bucks stays up for a couple of weeks & never sales. Then it's re listed in a real auction then sales for over 50 bucks. Go figure.lol

Jasper Quote:1955-D It's my first LWC off center and was surprised the seller had it listed as buy now for 9.95+3.00 shipped. Most off center LWC sell for over $50.00 In fact I think there's only 18 LWC listed on ebay right now and the cheapest one is $80 bucks.Just wanted to share Great find  Nice pictures  Thanks for sharing
