Put it in a glossy holder, then take a blurry picture and post it upside down. Make sure you don't show the reverse. Use a detailed description like "this is a 1914 d cent" http://cgi.ebay.com/320966849992

Don't forget not using prosper punctuation and grammar in the description. I honestly would stay away as soon as I saw that but it made me chuckle, nice find!

I took a look. Sad. But what irks me more is a slabbed coin with the reverse upside down! I do NOT want to see the label - I want to see the COIN! So, the potential seller looses my interest in an instant - and perhaps my respect forever,

And it's not a fluke . . . almost off of the items he is selling is listed like such.

Are there any bids on it yet? I can't see it at work beacuse it is an ACCESS DENIED website.

If he would have posted a higher resolution photo, maybe I could have viewed the details a bit better... At 1000% zoom level the mint mark looks like a blob and is too low, and with the low resolution you can't tell if it was a 1924 or 1944 altered cent... Anyone interested in this coin should request a higher resolution photo to see if there's a "vdb" on Lincoln's shoulder (if so, it is 100% altered), or request he have it certified... Below is one of his feedbacks he received... "coins had a haze coating on them not disclosed in description" Buyer: Member id larrybyers ( Feedback Score Of 67) Sep-28-11 10:20 1981 proof set with clear mint marks all coins (# 320759273157) US $199.99

"i ship within 24 business hrs and accept papal" Does this mean 3 business days (or does he work overtime)? Does he accept the Pope's money?

Quote: is a slabbed coin with the reverse upside down! I do NOT want to see the label Ummm, thats not a slabbed coin. Its just a plastic holder anyone can get, and no label. Man, if it was 380 I might go for it. *snort*
