Don't know either, someone doesn't know their mint marks! Oh I don't understand the price either??? I seeing more and more strange things on ebay.

 

Hi Hector if you are saying that you have one like the one listed on eBay then it's a common coin and not worth what they are asking. Unless it's in really high grade then it's worth a few cents and by high grade I mean Ms 66 or higher. The person who listed the coin on eBay has no clue lol.

 

I honestly thought it was a joke but the more I read it the more I think they are being serious.

 

I wonder what PCGS #1 grader thinks about it and why didn't he make the label correct Unfortunately I think he is crazy serious . just hope he stays on eBay and doesn't find us.

 

I like his explanation for how it came about. Apparently San Francisco was using blank planchets that already had S mintmarks on them and those mintmarked planchets were distributed to the other mints.

 

List it on ebay.. they will buy it there

 

then bring it here and pester us lol

 

lets hope not

 

I just tried the link and it showed no results it wasn't there.

hmm maybe he wised up and took it down...nah doubt it. Who knows where it went.

 

Yeah, for those of us who didn't see this until the auction was pulled, what was it showing?

I really don't like eBay's policy of hiding auctions entirely instead of just ending them.

 

One big reason I don't like that is because those of us that missed it can't see who it was and avoid them. Also, it's fun to point and laugh sometimes

 

I get plenty of schadenfreude from eBay in spit of this policy. What bugs me is that we can't see a seller's history of bogus listings. If it's bad enough, eBay will kill the account, but that doesn't seem to happen very consistently.

Actually, maybe there is a policy that infractions bad enough to get a listing removed also get your account disabled. It's hard to check, since we can't see the removed listings...

 

It showed a 1958 D PCGS graded cent that he claimed was a D/S and that the only reason it wasn't called that on the label was because two out of three expert PCGS graders wouldn't confirm that it was over an S. He claimed that one said it was, one said it wasn't and the third was undecided, and since two didn't agree it was just labeled as a D.

As I mentioned earlier his explanation of how this coin occured was that San Francisco used planchets that already had S mintmarks on them and rather than let them go to waste they shipped them to the other mints for them to use.

And he only wanted $950,000 for it.

 

Did he ever say how he knew the grading results by individuals? Can anyone get the scorers grades and opinions and opinions also?

 

Now there's a description that should have been saved for posteriors. Posterity. One of those.

 

I'm not into blank planchents, I picked one up at the grocery store for a penny.
But one with an s on it....I'd give 2 cents for ONE.
