Peter THOMAS Pillar of the Community Australia 2830 Posts	Posted 08/30/2008 9:01 pm G'day, there is no reason for scammers like this to get discouraged. With no pics, with a feedback of 2 (1 of them as a buyer), he's got a bid of $1,000. Where's the downside for him ? Peter Report this Post to the Staff
coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 08/30/2008 9:31 pm He has a RESERVE on it? I'd doubt he's a scammer then. Any scammer would just LOVE to get $1000 for a piece of junk. Report this Post to the Staff
coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 08/30/2008 9:31 pm Probably just some fool who has no clue what he is doing. Report this Post to the Staff
ratio411 Pillar of the Community United States 1208 Posts	Posted 08/31/2008 09:20 am Let's all ask him for pics... I asked him to please take a pic and email it to me. I went on to say if he didn't have a camera, throw it on a scanner. I am sorry, but anyone with a computer and neighbors has access to some way to image this thing. Also, if the thing has been "quoted at $200k value", then why didn't he sell it then for $200k? Report this Post to the Staff
KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 08/31/2008 12:44 pm I asked him; his words: Quote: No I am sorry there is not photo of this penny. Well, ok...whatever, genius. Report this Post to the Staff
coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 08/31/2008 12:51 pm Yeah, I really now do think this guy isn't a scammer, just a fool. He probably got a fake re-released into circulation, anyway. Report this Post to the Staff
Sir Ferrari Pillar of the Community United States 671 Posts	Posted 08/31/2008 3:48 pm Quote: In circulated condition coin is quoted at being worth in access of $200,000. Since this coin has some wear on it I would not expect that much. Quote: Anyone attemtping to scam me or other scams will be brought to justice. Irony! Report this Post to the Staff
Pennypusher Valued Member United States 486 Posts	Posted 08/31/2008 10:48 pm ratio411, Good idea. I wonder what he'll say -PP Report this Post to the Staff
Pennypusher Valued Member United States 486 Posts	Posted 08/31/2008 10:59 pm What imbecil is going to spend roughly 200K on this coin without even seeing a simple picture. Sounds like a scam to me! -PP Report this Post to the Staff
COINAHOLIC Rest in Peace United States 1501 Posts	Posted 09/02/2008 1:20 pm There are pictures now!?!? Guess he figured it out. Report this Post to the Staff
Steamwalker Valued Member United States 201 Posts	Posted 09/02/2008 4:14 pm Looks like he just used an image of the same penny in the wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1943_steel_cent I knew that image looked familiar... Report this Post to the Staff
Pennypusher Valued Member United States 486 Posts	Posted 09/02/2008 4:35 pm Good work Steamwalker. This seller is a joke! Someone should call him out about the picture. Any takers? -PP Report this Post to the Staff
Steamwalker Valued Member United States 201 Posts	Posted 09/02/2008 5:05 pm Looks like the listing was just removed. Report this Post to the Staff
coinguybrian Rest in Peace United States 5375 Posts	Posted 09/02/2008 6:55 pm Well, I guess some scammers are truly stupid. Why on earth did this guy have a reserve? Did he want to make it look like it was worth something then lower it later? Report this Post to the Staff
KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 09/02/2008 8:48 pm Good deal! He should've expected a bunch of collectors to notice that. It's not like rolls of bronze 43's exist. Report this Post to the Staff
