<p>[QUOTE="C-B-D, post: 4742497, member: 43130"]Happened to me once. A decade ago I was just getting into Capped Bust Halves. Going on bad pictures, I bought what I thought was an 1836 O-116 50/00... a pretty tough variety. When the coin arrived, I knew I was wrong immediately. But upon further investigation I found that I had an O-108a 1836/1336 overdate. This was when they sold for big premiums, so I was able to flip it quickly for a nice profit, since I already had one in PCGS AU50.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
