...this one really grabbed me: 1999 CENT MINT ERROR DOUBLE STRUCK REVERSE DIE CAP PCGS MS65RD GORGEOUS! That reverse!
it is for sale for $300. I would not buy it. Then again I'm no fan of lincoln cents nor do I collect errors. I'd talk to @non_cents about this.
No, no pickup here -- I should've been clearer. I have no idea what a coin like this should go for, but I don't think I'm in love enough to pay what it's worth. It really did grab my attention, though.
I'd pony up a good amount for that coin, considering that die caps are pretty hard to come by anyway. That being said I have no idea if it's worth $300. This "normal" reverse die cap from 1998 in the same grade went for less than $200, though it was not double-struck. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1998-Lincol...31?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item51bced39df
Looks like that one went for between $155 and $172, judging from where it falls in a sorted-by-price list of completed auctions. (They still won't reveal the Best Offer that was accepted, but they do appear to use the actual closing price for sorting.)
The seller has some other cool errors on his ebay page also. I don't know enough about them to know if they are a good deal though.
That's the method I used to use as well, but you can also search the listing number on watchcount.com and they'll usually be able to provide you with the sell price of Best Offer listings.
Wha... how do they do that?! I thought eBay had locked down the BO-pricing info harder than that! Bookmarked, and thanks!
