Someone once told me on here that anyone that finds or has an unusual(error) coin thinks it's genuine and worth a million dollars.
Here's a good example.

It'll be hard to find a buyer, but then again, he only needs to sell one of them

From the listing:

Quote:
I have also taken it to my local ANACS grader for a brief look and they verified the coin is real but may have been altered outside the mint.

Why should I believe ANACS? I'll put it on e-Bay for $1,000,000.00!

He does have the "Make Offer" option. I am thinking about offering him 1 cent. It is free shipping!

I have "NO TRUST" in that penny being a genuine error.

I made the mistake of buying a Lincoln Cent once off of ebay that I thought was a genuine double strike until I received it. Upon examination it too was one of these "Vice" cents. What really amused me was that after examining it with a loop that the coin that it was pressed again wasn't even from the same year. I believe the coin was a 1980,and the press was a 1972. Upon viewing the sellers other items they also had a 1972 with a incomplete (broken) planchet which I'm 100% certain was the coin they used. I was polite and told them the coin wasn't what I expected, and thankfully they refunded my money. I wonder if I would have told them I was onto them if it would have ended differently ?
