Well, perhaps I should be minding my own business more, but here is my morning's interesting discussion. Here is the link to the auction, should you care to see it yourself: 10+ 1877 Indian HeadLincoln Pennies Corroded Cull, Good 1-Cent - Cleaned ! | eBay
Based upon his use of grade school grammar I rather have my suspicions about his "been in business fifty years" claim..... And isn't it odd that only the 1877 is beat up? I wouldn't pay any more attention to this crook.
I have. I post this here only to show what kind of people are selling these counterfeit coins. It is really sad. I pity whoever buys this lot, seeing that there is already a bid and multiple people watching it.
Fifty-five years means nothing. Anybody can screw up. You can also be a dealer who has been in business for 55 years who has lost his fast ball. He might not see as well any more, or he might not have been that good in the first place.
