@furryfrog02 and @cpm9ball We should just link this article especially when someone thinks they found the 1982 D SD Copper and the 1969 Doubled Die
This should be part of mandatory reading "WITH A TEST" before being able to establish an account! Know what I mean @furryfrog02?
I disagree with this Coinweek article. Because there are dozens of 1969 Doubled Die and dozens of 1982 SD copper cents listed on Etsy! All for spectacular low prices of $50,000.00 and up! All found by experts who started collecting about 1 month ago
Dreams of fantasy riches > logic I cant blame people for being hopeful and dreaming. They are being sold an "idea" in exchange for clicks and views. Could you imagine how fast a channel on Youtune would fail if they explained the truthful chances? I say that yet millions of people went out tonight and gave their hard earned money in exchange for 6 numbers that "could" turn them into millionaires. 1 in 292,201,338 is the powerball odds. Paint one single penny blue and put it into an a pile of pennies that consists of 292,201,338. Blind fold yourself and reach in and grab the blue one in one try.All those people think they actually have a shot! Makes it easy to understand why people think they could find 1943 copper penny. People hold onto hope in odd ways. Wrap your head around this...takes 185,000,000 pennies to fill an average sized backyard swimming pool....good luck picking the blue penny.
The first response I have to any of the above is "no, you don't" Sure, it's mathematically possible but to be honest, there is no realistic way that YOU are the one. There is SOMEONE, but NOT YOU.
