[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 412135, member: 12965"]It didn't quite say that but it could be read that way. The seller said: MERCURY DIME 1943 w/WHEAT PENNY BACK If you place a comma on both sides of 1943, you will see the 1943 was meant to describe the obverse and not the reverse. Neverthelesss, how would a 1909 reverse find it's way onto the reverse of a 1943 dime? :goof: There are two possibilities: 1. Seller is outright deceitful! 2. Seller posted the wrong pic. I have messaged the seller to find out which? :D Ribbit :) Ps: Auction closed while I was sending the message to the seller and someone bid on it. :eek: Pps: I received a reply from the seller: [I][FONT=Arial]Hi, the auction item for sale is listed as: MERCURY DIME 1943 w/WHEAT PENNY BACK [/FONT][/I] [I][FONT=Arial]The front is the dime and reverse is a wheat penny. [/FONT][/I] [I][FONT=Arial]This item has sold. Thank you for your interest.[/FONT][/I] This was my message to them: [FONT=Arial][I]Did you post the wrong pic for the reverse? The reverse pic posted is a penny and not a dime. [/I][/FONT] [I][FONT=Arial]If you did post the wrong pic, could you email me the correct pic?[/FONT][/I] Was it intentional fraud or is the seller that stupid? But moreover, just how stupid is the buyer? :whistle: Pps: After carefully reviewing what the seller said in their reply, it appears he got words mixed up: [FONT=Arial]MERCURY DIME 1943 w/WHEAT PENNY BACK = [/FONT][FONT=Arial]1943 Mercury Dime w/Wheat Back Penny[/FONT] [FONT=Arial][/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Maybe it's a 6 year old selling them? :goof:[/FONT][/QUOTE]
