1988-D Wide AM Penny

1988-D Wide AM's are the normal design, Rolls are easier to sell unless you have the time to sell individual coins and all the mailing supplies and personal time it takes

THere's A 1988, and a 1988-D RVD-006, and should of been RVD-005. PCGS slabs them like this:

Regardless of color, you'd likely want to get them graded if they are Mint state coins. they don't sell nearly as well unattributed and raw as they do in a slab because most people can't tell the difference and the pictures can be faked by using a 1988 obverse and a 1989 reverse so people won't spend on them. However less than mint state, again regardless of color, it's $55 or less and most sales on ebay are $1-$20 in any raw condition because it's a gamble if it's a scam or not.

My opinion, if you are going to do this and you really have that many, the only way to get paid on it is to have them attributed and slabbed, and I'd make the first step doing it on an ANACS special where it's like 10 coins for $100 or 12 coins for $120 or whatever and avoid the membership and $15 grading fee plus variety attribution fee, and yada yada yada of the other grading companies. if something comes back mintstate or higher, then consider sending to PCGS or NGC for their slabbing which will bring better sales price, but if less than mint state, any attributing company that can be trusted will insure you can maximize the profit off each one to a reasonable amount, ANACS might not be best to realize full potential.

You should not sell them as a lot, you'll make more selling them one by one, after each auction ends and then listing another, regardless of which auction format you use, ebay, Heritage, Whatever.

However, I'm skeptical you have that many, but anything is possible I suppose. the difference is in the FG and it's placement, the real difference is the font of the G. using the AM is going to be inconclusive, both RVD-005 and RVD-006 are similar there.

Just click the link scroll down to RVD-006. that's what you are looking for. Good luck.

PCGS graded several 1988 without them being the RDV-006. You can many of them on the trueview pics on their site. " Wide AM" isn't a variety, its on all 1988 cent
