What, did they just have it on a table or something?

Basically, yeah. It was in one of those Bradford cards from a few years back (see below), each of which contains two coins from a particular year. In the case of the 1913 card I could see that this specimen was way nicer than the trashy culls that are usually so encased, so I cut it out. The other 1913 happened to be a Denver also, but a cleaned, battered one that might just barely rate AG03 Details.

Note that somewhat confusingly they refer to these as being the " Lincoln Memorial cent".

Another error, they called it a 1914 cent, in which, it's a 1913.

This company surely failed hard.

No, no, no. They had two of these, for 1913 & 1914. The 1914's aren't worth breaking out, just wanted to show what the product looked like.
