What's wrong?  This is the best laugh I have had in awhile. Blurry picture with lots of glare for a coin priced to sell at 1.35 million? And, you have to pay $38 for shipping? Wow, I am reaching for my check book as I type this.  |

Ah yes, the Cheyenne, formerly known as the Enigma, formerly known as the Pennache, formerly known as the Lucky 7 Leaf Hair Penny.... This seller promoted the heck out of this coin on many coin forums, basically cutting and pasting the same ebay description in a desperate effort to promote this coin. I can't search for older archives here, but there are a ton of posts on at least 6 coin forums I know of, dating back to early 2010. If the moderators don't mind the link to another forum, here is an archived post from 2010 on CoinTalk, which is pretty funny reading: http://www.cointalk.com/t91730/"Discovery follows discovery, each both raising and answering questions, each ending a long search, and each providing the new instruments for a new search." -- J.

If I offer this guy $1,100,000, do you guys think the seller will be insulted and tell me where to go?  Edited by darryldarryl

 Can you imagine, for 1.3 million, you could own the finest Canadian Numismatic Business Strike Decimal Collection in the history of collecting! Glenn |

With the proceeds of the sale, he can buy all 3 x 1936 dot pennies in existence |

The best part of that thread was on page 7, when a post puts up a Heritage auction link: http://coins.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleN...1&lotNo=6216and says, Quote:
Sold for $375. BTW, see that second date? WOW! I guess that makes this a 4 x 4444 which trumps a 3 x 777! Edited by SPP-Ottawa

Absolute joke on the value. No chance that he will ever get even more than 1/10 of what he wants.

If I could afford that and was gonna spend it on a Canadian Penny it better be one of the 1936 dot pennies.
