Bonedigger Pillar of the Community United States 1267 Posts	Posted 08/30/2008 7:24 pm Apparently there are more skeptics than bidders... Take Care Ben Report this Post to the Staff
KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 08/30/2008 7:43 pm Does anyone see a photo? I don't, lol. If it were real, he could easily get it slabbed, "market-graded", and probably clear $100K. Heritage would salivate over the opportunity--it would draw crowds. Report this Post to the Staff
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
