Received the two proof sets today along with my two rockets. I was supposed to get two of the Lincoln W cents. One little bag was sealed with a coin in it. The other bag was not sealed, no coin anywhere. Disappointing. :'(

    Call. Easy fix for a cent. Look at the packing slip for contact info or the website.

    It was typed tongue in cheek Joe. I'll see if I can change it though.

    They shipped your W Cent out with the group of 921 pcs,,,,,, got to make up for that mistake somehow.

    I know. But if it looks like you are impugning a business entity, the moderators will remove the thread.

    Well that is distressing... I am sure they will correct the problem... Mine should arrive any time now...Cheers, RickO

    Maybe they'll send you a "tall" cent as compensation for the "short" one?

    If they send you a Cent struck on a 1/10 oz Gold Planchet , I think maybe they would be forgiven for their screw up. Those people have a long long Journey ahead of them before I will forgive and forget about my " mishap" .
