    I was wondering the same thing. Would be just as cool with circulated coins even if they were cleaned to shine.

    Wonder if he is afraid it will break apart.

    It is 30 x 11 inches and 8 pounds so it seems that the seller is inexperienced in shipping something this size or thinks that a buyer won't pay what UPS or FedEx would charge for packing and shipping it.

    Yes, but that cuts down his market by 99%, requiring an in-person pickup. Once someone lays down $900+ for the thing, $40+ for shipping seems like no big deal.

    I would note that late-date Proof Lincolns are almost impossible to get rid of.
