[QUOTE="clembo, post: 797849, member: 8033"]I finally decided to read this thread and suffice it to say I have learned a lot. You'd figure since I actually work in a coin shop I might actually have a clue but apparently not so. For starters, having never avidly collected Lincoln Cents I had no idea a gem 1963-D was so valuable for instance. I'll have to inform my boss that has been in business for 42 years now of this. We've been known to toss gems like this in the cash drawer and give them out as change! GASP!!!! We also have a few BU rolls of 1969-S at the shop. I have checked them with a loupe but can honestly say NOT under an electron microscope. If I talk real nice to my boss I MAY be able to pick these up for under $10,000 per roll. Armed with this sudden knowledge I should also be able to make a few million bucks for the boss in the next week or so IF I can find the right buyers. Heck, I may even get a million dollar or so bonus! Now for the seller. Please put me on your blocked list. By forum rules I can not reveal my ebay username in this thread but it's remarkably close to my name here on CT. I only ask this in case, for instance, an anvil is dropped on my head from the 12th floor of a building, I miraculously survive, and decide to bid on one of your auctions. I figure I wouldn't have the money after medical bills and we'd end up in a long court battle. Also for the seller. You know how CT can affect a seller? Well, why is that? Pseudo respectfully yours.
