Thread: 1944-d steel cent

1944-d steel cent is this real???

Yep, sure is.

It's super rare, I think something like less than 30 were minted. Since its slabbed I'd guess its real.

It looks real to me...and they are known to exist. I know a couple years ago a 1944-S steel cent graded by NGC as MS66 sold for $374K at auction.

NGC thinks it is genuine.

Their opinion is good enough for me.

Hey Cave Troll,
Does my ex wife know you're using her college yearbook picture as your avatar? Just wondering.

I actually just spit out some of my drink when I read that

Looks genuine to me, not only is it in a respectable slab, it's certification number checks out. I looked it up on NGC's site. All I know is, they are incredibly rare and fetch six figures regardless of the grade. There were only a few minted. They are even more rare and valuable than the '43 Copper cents, and less exist. I'd take one in any grade, they are truly the ultimate Lincoln cent to own.

i will start the bidding at One Dollar.... any takers? lol

It's real. Overgraded, but real.

Real, a very rare coin.

Nice 1 JW MS-61 too great buy!!!
I know the highest grade one I have seen was MS64 I think.

MS 61 ? I think this coin is circulated. A dirty looking one to be graded as Mint State 61. Just my Honest Opinion.

I am not sure,but H.A or Stacks and Tel-a-Trade
do get better grades on coins than Joe Q Public do.
