http://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-LINCOL...38?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item1c3c979a82 What is going on with this cent? He has sold a bunch priced all over the board, but they just don't look right for doubled die coin to me. I am new at this error stuff so I will let y'all explain it to me. Thanks
Heavy die wear. I have seen these coins go for upwards of $20. The auctions often tout the item as "rare" or other choice adjectives, despite this anomaly being incredibly common.
some folks have made a fortune selling this junk .these coins are worth only one cent and just like non - cents said they were struck with a worn out die.
He's following this jokers lead: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2013-D-Doub...02?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item4861a677c6 He's sold a bunch and I really pity the people that spent as much as $20 for this common junk. There is no cure for stupid. But then, some ethically challenged folks are not immune from taking "advantage" of stupid. You'd think that stupid would check the feedback of their sellers to see exactly how "rare" this stuff really is. After all, how "rare" could they be if he's selling them 2 at a time and they've completed hundreds of listings with them?
That's why I was asking, they were selling so many of these how could they be errors? How does this guy find so many waffled and off centered coins though? I search a lot of rolls and I know you're not gonna find these in rolls so where do you find these?
Waffle coins are purchased in the after market as the US Mint sells them by the ton to an outside vendor who then resells them to dealers. Generally speaking, error coins are all purchased in the after market in large lots.
