Take a look at this auction and see if you can tell me why you should look at what you are selling; http://cgi.ebay.com/1955-D-1C-Linco...dual?hash=item4ceb412dbc&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
I would say that I was losing faith in ICG except I'm not sure if I ever had faith in the first place. Remind me again of their acronymn (ICG = In Cluttered Garage?) Ok, the seller should have been able to tell that it was S too. Also, I always considered the coin copper not bronze.
Kinda reinforces the idea to stick with PCGS or NGC. Not saying they don't make mistakes but this one is pretty much in your face...
True, and that makes all the stranger. Normally, when submitting a coin, one knows what one is submitting ! Especially strange since the "S" is slightly better than the "D", and yet the submitter failed to get the problem rectified.
This is also what happens when you have "data entery" people run your ebay biz. They know nothing about coins just read the holders!
In 67 for sure and probably even 66, the D is better than the S. In fact in 67, PCGS lists the D as $4200, but the S as only $200. For NGC 67's, the D's go for $225 on Heritage but the S's only $61.
Yeah, if my memory serves me correctly, there weren't too many 1955-S cents produced in Denver that year! But all jokes aside, the winning bidder got it for $9.99. If that coin is genuine (not made in China or someone's basement), it was a pretty good deal.
What are the odds of two of them:whistle: Another going in half an hour:bigeyes: http://cgi.ebay.com/1955-D-1C-Linco...dual?hash=item4ceb43b0d3&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14
