This poor coin should be put out of its misery. If it was a horse it would have been shot by now. http://cgi.ebay.com/WOW-1914D-Linco...mQQptZCoins_US_Individual?hash=item25570a8bc9 Nice color though:whistle:
Either the guy needs a new camera, or it's a doubled die retrofitted 1944-D Lincoln cent. A true rarity in the series. I'll bid on the darn thing then!!!
A perfect example, look at the spacing between the 9 and 1 (4). These are easily spotted. Great catch.
This is the craziest attempt to deceive that I've ever seen on ebay. Destroy a 1944D with a blow torch; alter it to a 1914D, and try to sell it. Do you think that he thought that people wouldn't pay attention to the date because of the scorching? I know that I didn't pay attention to the date when I first looked at the coin because it was so ugly anyway.
Yes, indeed! My first wife had a pair of 38Ds. And her's weren't altered. 44D woulda been way too much... :bigeyes:
