    Hmm. That coin didn't sell the first time he posted it several weeks ago, so lets see if it sells now at a reduced price. I myself can't hardly wait to find a coin with fingerprints thats been cleaned and overpriced by $88.95!!!

    I guess the prints belong to the person who picked it up off the floor and threw it back in with the rest..lol

    Tommy,

    This is INDEED a rare error because it's at least the second time it's been listed on ebay (by the same seller now what a coincidence).

    It was posted on a thread the first time and I emailed the seller about it. HE DOES NOT LIKE ME. Said he was going to block my bids - like I really care or would ever bid. What a moron!


    Want to have some fun? Ask him a general question about the item. He'll most likely respond in a nasty manner. I know it amused me.

    .....and by the way I won't bid. Hell, I'm probably blocked.

    Nickelman,

    I went back and found the original thread. You posted it didn't you?

    Here it is:

    Please read through this one folks to get a better idea of what a "quality" seller this guy is!

    Then ask him a question. Like I said, he already hates me. (I have lost no sleep over this)

    I guess it is possible when the die was made a print could have been on it.
    This would mean there are more out there floating around.

    I can't believe you haven't lost sleep over this! No wonder it didn't sell the first time he blocked you!! LOL

    I just made an offer on the coin. Since shipping is free, I offered $1 face value. If I win, he'll actually lose money! I thought it was a generous offer nonetheless.

    I sent him a message also and asked him if he knew that just because his dollar had a fingerprint on it doesnt justify the huge premium. LOL...we'll all be blocked from his auction...haha...who cares.

    What this seller needs to do is get the print analyzed as to what comprises the pr int. If it is from MINT GREASE on the MINT EMPLOYEES fingers would it be considered a double error? Or maybe its just plan body oils and less rare!
    Hey hold everything!! I just searched a roll and found several of these man I'll make about $1000.00 OH never mind there my prints!:mouth::mouth:
