I wont thank you becuase I'm not here looking at Zincolns trying to sell them to ignorant people who don't know better

 

You are correct that people are buying them on ebay for exorbitant amounts. However, you need to ask yourself, are these knowledgeable collectors buying a truly rare coin that they want for their collection, or are they speculators hoping for a quick flip, or uninformed collectors who have not done the research?

It’s been pointed out that the “Errors” you see are due to overworked dies. The mint, like any high volume manufacturer, is trying to make coins at the lowest possible cost. If you do some research, you’ll find the mint frequently uses dies to the point of overuse. Coins with these defects are common and can frequently be found in change. Due to the number available, and lack of a collector base actively looking for these to add to their long term collections, they DO NOT have any added value.

Now, if you want to speculate and unload theses on ebay before the uninformed realize they have no market, that’s your business. But just like beanie babies, 90’s baseball cards, and tulip bulbs in the 1600’s, somebody is going to be left holding the bag when reality sets in and they find no long term collector market.

I would strongly recommend following your own advice and do the research before telling people they don’t know anything. And let us know what the other, more experienced groups say about your coins. It's always nice to learn something

 

You don't know anything, Youve only been an ANA member since 1982

 

I understand your point of view, and I appreciate it, but this guy has proven that he is not interested in learning. He is only interested in pawning these coins off to unsuspected buyers.
He already said that the market was in his favor. Some poor guy on ETSY will be trying to pawn these off for years.

 

@furryfrog02 it sure gets old. At least most have been civil lately and willing to learn.

 

He said he is going to a different group of experienced collectors
anyone wanna run over to coincommunity.com and say hi to our bro?

The fountain of misinformation!
You make me laugh... And the word is rolls not roles

Die Deterioration Doubling is worthless doubling!

 

The Die the strikes the blank planchet is deteriorated not the Cent itself.. Clearly you know nothing about the minting process

Not a Doubled Die

 

The word is "roll" not role. I guess English classes are scarce under a bridge. Add a t to it and it describes you bro.

 

I once had a cent for over 96 hours and it dissolved

 

That's planchet, not planxher

 

Can I post the picture of my dog yet?

 

Only if the dog is angry at OP for wasting everyone's time. Right @Bud1 Wilson ?

 

Sort of like comic relief.

 

Thanks you guys. Thanks for being so patient with an uninformed OP such as this one. I would have given up after the third post. And yes, it can be entertaining, but more frustrating for many.

 

Wow, having to exercise my "Ignore" button for the 29th time. But, that's what it's there for....

 

If the OP stopped posting, does anyone think this is an irreparable loss to CT?

 

I just checked eBay listings and anything sold recently hasn't gone over $60 or so for a full box. Not sure where you get that number.

 

That's what they sell for at the bridge swap meet!
