Are you thinking that it's an altered coin or big time error?

I think the surface is bubble and maybe cast as a memebr in the fly in club mentioned, I tend to agree with him it could very well be a pattern Bryan1315 maybe right but I tend to agree with the original person who posted it in the fly in club Rick snow. Not to mention that there is not a money back guarantee. does not sound right to me to much money to be spending sight unseen and no gurantee do people really buy these items on ebay

I see discoloring with dark and light spots and a wavy area under the eagle. My thought would be a pour. 26 negitives in 12 months..hummmm

What does that mean, "could be a pattern"? What is a pattern?

a pattern is a coin struck to see if they are going to use the design of the coin, since the coin is already copper I am guessing they would use copper for the pattern cent as well, but I have seen Morgan Patterns made of copper as well because copper is softer than silver. I guess a pattern coin is the same as a pattern of anything else, just an example of what it would look like when made in mass production

So are patterns worth anything? Seems like they would be interesting.

I agree with heritage you kind of know what you are getting and with ebay its a stuffshoot but if I had the money to burn I would probably bid 1000.00 on a coin that sold on heritage for 16,000.00 just to say I took a chance and it could have gone in my favor. I am also one that will hit on 18 in blackjack hoping for a 3 so maybe I am just a rare breed

well if I had the money to gamble, I would also, but I am not sure . The person who pulled this out and posted it was one of the premere experts on the series Rick Snow, so I would believe he would know more than me, anyway.. Thats the real factor to me
