I bought this coin off of ebay from a seller in Hong Kong and when it arrived it's a full red lustrous Cent that looks like it came off the mint presses yesterday ? I'm not sure if it's fake or real but it does look nice.

Actually I miss spoke as the coin was shipped from Kleinbettingen, Luxembourg and the seller was camille.jos and he has 3932 positive feed backs and I'm embarrassed because now I'm sure it's real and looking at the auction today I paid $0.99 for the item and $9.00 shipping. It's one of my better buys for sure and I bought it sometime ago and I thought it was from Hong Kong but's it wasn't.

Sorry for the mix up
