Darth Anarchus Pillar of the Community United States 1388 Posts	Posted 02/20/2011 5:53 pm John1 brought this up, and I just looked on ebay and I was kinda shocked by the prices on there! Does anyone know what the value of this beauty would be? I would seriously never sell it because this is an amazing find for me, just wondering. This looks to me as about 20% off-center, I'm just so excited! Report this Post to the Staff

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19961 Posts	Posted 02/20/2011 9:47 pm Quote: Best roll find I have ever seen! It's definately up there on my list too. Finding an off-center Memorial is rare enough, but a 39 wheat in the wild is ULTRA rare. It' up there with finding a 92 CAM. Too bad it's not near as valuable....seems unfair. LOL Lincoln Cent Lover!

biggfredd Rest in Peace United States 9104 Posts	Posted 02/21/2011 10:37 am 10% OC K11 Vg or F, hard to see wheat detail dated OC more valuable than undated and since it's that old. Anything can happen on ebay (a 1939 birthday, for example), it appears $50 would be fair. search "off center wheat" Report this Post to the Staff
Darth Anarchus Pillar of the Community United States 1388 Posts	Posted 02/21/2011 5:03 pm would it be a good idea to get this baby graded? any thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff
Scooby Due Pillar of the Community United States 4000 Posts	Posted 02/21/2011 5:12 pm That's a spectacular find for a roll! I wouldn't get it graded even if I were going to sell it. All the grading fees and time involved would cut into any potential profit. I'm not sure it even would grade, it looks like there is corrosion. Report this Post to the Staff
Darth Anarchus Pillar of the Community United States 1388 Posts	Posted 02/21/2011 8:13 pm Thanks Scoob! There's just a little bit near the hairline on the obverse, everything else looks pretty good. The wheat shows much better than in the pics, they have full lines. I'm not experienced at cleaning at all, so I hope the corrosion spot(if that's what it is) doesn't spread. I'm really happy that it has the date. From my learning from the community, that seems to be goin for me. Not too bad for a Cent Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 02/21/2011 8:19 pm Put it up for auction here! I will throw some bids down :-O Here is one on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/1935-10-Off-Cen...em2c585634bd Yours is obviously circulated, but I would imagine in the $65-100 range. swcoin.ecrater.com Edited by vermontensium 02/21/2011 8:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Darth Anarchus Pillar of the Community United States 1388 Posts	Posted 02/22/2011 2:50 pm I might do that before I fall completely head over heels for her... I think I would get a few bids, but I have never auctioned anything here before, nor do I know how...here's a few better pics anyway Report this Post to the Staff
