But ya....I don't really understand what hes trying to do.

But it's on sale for 6% off!! And it was originally priced at $1,000,000 based on the writing on the 2x2! Luckily there's the big blue arrow on the 2x2 pointing out there error so you don't miss it.  |

Yes sure, right, what a bargain. Now what kind of person would put a so called $1,000,000 valued coin is a cheap cardboard 2 x2 and staple it closed.  Edited by sgtbigred

OK, time for a little education for me. Do errors like this really happen? I'm not a US collector so my ignorance level is high. And if these do happen, what is a fair price for something like this.

yes, they do happen, but a fair price is about $5 or $6

Yes, it is a legitimate error coin, but the asking price is just a wee bit out of touch with reality.  As I'm sure you can see, it was struck off center. I collect off-center Lincoln cents and they make a really neat looking collection. The ones with a legible date and mintmark command the most premium. Some dates are rarer than others. Some dates will sell for $5 or $10, some will sell for a whole lot more than that. The more off-center they are and still have a legible date and mintmark, the more desirable they are. |
