    I considered calling it a VF35, but hey, I'm partial to it. :)

    I would like to find out more about Allegiance. I have a snipe set up on an eBay collection of just four IHCs that are already bid up to ~$40 — my snipe is for more than double the current bid. I spent ten times that on just three IHCs last month. I deserve a break.

    Edit: I found no IHCs for $19 at his site.

    I am Allegiance Rare Coins. I took those pics. And I bought the coins on eBay using buy-it-now from a seller who had far away pics and called these coins "F-VF."

    I know this is a case of you misunderstanding the situation, but having to defend my deals is getting old fast. This is my favorite thread on CT, but maybe I should give it a rest. Or maybe I should just post all my sources so you guys can find them and cherrypick them, too. Here you go... have at it.

    Now that’s nice for 11 bucks. Nicer than the one I’m waiting on that I paid 20 for! Great pickup!

    Maybe if the seller would have the word "mercury" in the title, someone else would have found it first.

    Maybe you shouldn’t be sharing your cherry picking secrets. o_O;)

    @C-B-D I greatly enjoy reading your cherrypicks. I hope you understand my comment about me not believing you was just me teasing you and a tongue in cheek reference to the comment before about how coincidental your $50.00 purchase was exactly the limit. No offense was intended.

    You are one of the more active posters on this thread and I love seeing the sweet deals you score. Don't give up your secrets, it takes a lot of hard work and dedication to pour through eBay looking for the deals you find. I encourage you to keep posting and if someone keeps complaining, just ignore them.

    PICK ON MAN!!! :D

    I guess it just bothered me (not your joking comment, but others')... felt like folks considered me a liar or something. If anyone else wants to know my secret, here it is: Spend 6-8 hours a day on eBay. There ya go.

    It really is a full-time job to make any decent money with coins on eBay. I spent 2-3 hours a day and only made $1000-2000 a month from cherrypicks and the like. And that was outside of working a full-time job. It is really draining. But it has paid for my college so far, so I’ll continue to do it until I don’t need to worry about saving money for college.

    This was $9 on eBay. AU, 180° rotated reverse, and multiple die clashes in the 180° configuration. One of my many scores from my daily 2-3-hour excursions on eBay.

    The listing has since been purged from eBay’s records, but here you go ;)

    Oh, and I sold the other coin for $20. The error coin was actually free. :)
