Well, it's certainly better than drinking the stuff.
He's persistent. It's like being lucky, only it actually works.
Judging from the images, "missing both clad layers AND copper core".
These make me wonder -- are split-planchet errors known for Zincolns? I don't know whether the planchet production process would let a zinc blank...
As I understand it, they were minting them. But since there were no S-mint-mark coins after 1955, I don't remember whether SF participated.
Up. There. No, higher than that.
The Mints stopped putting mintmarks on coins with the 1965-dated issues (they were still striking 1964-dated coins well past the end of that...
I'm assuming from the way it's rotting that it's a Zincoln; it would take some work to make a bronze cent look like that. Lincoln Memorial cents...

And go ahead, guess his age from that photo. I dare you. ;)
I think 1971 was when they redid the reverse dies. From then on, full steps were a lot more common. Still a sight to see on a coin that entered...
Yes, exactly. You're not always the only one sniping a given auction.
If I'd been the judge setting bond, I don't think I could've resisted setting the bond to $1,017,500. Maybe he's got another bill like that at...
I still have a little regret over selling the first AGE I ever bought, a proof with the Roman numerals. I did well on the flip, but I really like...
Separate names with a comma.
