Sorry, but I don't understand what the big deal is about this coin. It's up to $50. in bids?http://cgi.ebay.com/ONE-OF-A-KIND-1...goryZ543QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
The reverse shows a nice, perfectly round coin. The obverse shows a coin with a not-so-round appearance. Front and back pix of different coins. 99 foot pole anyone? Exactly what error is Airquote "Goose eggs" end Airquote. Looks to my untrained eyes like it may have been shot with a bb-gun. Thrice.
It's not a genuine error, that's for sure. The bubbles on the obverse are probably the result of intense heat.
Excuse me, I have to go out & buy a blow torch. Lets see: blow torch: $30 Ebay listing $1.00 Coin: $.10 Profit, per piece: plenty. enjoyment: priceless.
It seems I might also be interested in buying this after viewing the auction : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&itemcount=4&sspagename=MERCOSI_VI_ROSI_PR4_PCN_BIX&refwidgetloc=closed_view_item&viewitem=&refitem=130187831371&item=190190372060&refwidgettype=osi_widget
i would vote that it got heated up the coin looks like it has 40 years of wear but not on the bumps hmmm ??
