<p>[QUOTE="brg5658, post: 1492236, member: 29751"]One of my better ebay purchases lately -- an MS66 RD 1909 VDB cent. In the picture below notice that it was listed under "1965-Now Roosevelt Dimes". In addition, the seller didn't include "NGC", "Lincoln", or "Cent" anywhere in the title, and only an obverse image was provided. The picture was ok but not great quality. What you see from the screen shot below is what I went on, nothing more. Given that eBay has Buyer Protection, I took a stab at it.</p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Here's the eBay screen shot:</b></p><p>[ATTACH]190215.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>And...</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Here's the coin in hand.

It is a nice coin for the grade, and the most recent older holdered MS66RD NGC example on eBay sold for $295!! [ATTACH]190216.vB[/ATTACH] Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose -- eBay is a crap shoot -- but a crap shoot with Buyer Protection! ;) EDIT: By the way, in the screen shot above, both of the "2 bids" are mine. One at the opening bid of $112.50 and I had another snipe at $130.00. :) So, I was the only bidder.[/QUOTE]
