<p>[QUOTE="mike98024, post: 298202, member: 10019"]The 1797 large cent in XF and the 1812 in AU for $700 combined. Both were extremely dark and had some corrosion damage. (Ebay- the guy was unregistered within a week) They were still worth about $550 so the lesson was kind of expensive, but not backbreaking. Even with that screwup, it lead to a love of early copper where I did quite well with every other purchase, and ended up owning some phenomenal coins. Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
