It is fake. The date style is wrong.

I'd pass on it.

There's no mint mark because it was made in Philadelphia.

$500 is way too much to spend on a coin that the seller won't even say is genuine.

with the others on the date style and not taking the risk. Coop's comparison shows a clear difference in the last digits.

Don't buy this from the seller. It fake and it's been altered to look like the real Copper one. This seller is full of it and he doesn't know what he's talking about. Stay away from this seller.

Oh Please - there were only supposedly like 14 of these and they go for hundreds of thousands of dollars. You can buy one at (Not Allowed) for 3.99!! Doesn't that tell you something?

Would you buy Atlantic ocean beachfront property in Colorado if someone was trying to sell it?

Oh, to sit on the mountain with the ocean at my feet. I would like 59 yards, please.

As with your other thread on the same subject, it's a big fat NO to your question.

If all the 1943 copper pennies I've found on ebay were real, I would have a hundred of them. Which doesn't seem accurate.
