I needed a laugh today, this seller was willing to provide that!

EXTREMELY RARE 1973 ABRAHAM LINCOLN BROWN PENNY NO MINT MARK VERY FEW EVER MADE!
https://www.ebay.com/itm/313894007270?hash=item49158a71e6:g:pb0AAOSwgl9iG-Zb
The seller has several other VERY RARE LINCOLN'S TOO.
I didn't know that the Philly mint struck fewer brown no mint mark Lincoln's than the red copper ones?

Clueless seller...

Clueless seller...

"Clueless" at best!

I've been doing my ebay searches for valuable Lincoln's wrong! I finely found the search criteria that groups the most money making Lincoln's in a single search

What? Only 473. Hardly worth the effort.

Wow, he even has a 1926-D with no mint mark! Think about that for a moment.

You should message them and tell them there is an error in their no mint mark listing, that one has a mint mark

I'm gonna start listing some.

The SOLD listings are worse!
And the lost people that search these out don't see the real normal priced coins because they put No Mint Mark in their searches, so these cons really have created a parallel coin market universe, with no one in it buying for collecting purposes, its a frigging Twilight Zone for real!

It is amazing what shows up on ebay.... I really stopped looking for coins there years ago. (Though, through a forum member tip, I did just get a special token there). The trash and scams are just overwhelming in the listings. I do not have the time to go through all of that. Cheers, RickO

And think of all the ebay hunters waiting for underpriced listings to pop up?

They usually look for overdates and rare mm coins that the seller is not aware of.

I just realized, how does that have 12 watchers??? I'm really hoping none of them actually thinks that it's legit

I'll watch similarly overpriced material just to see if anyone is dumb enough to buy it... cheap entertainment, I suppose...

It's hard to believe that his previous sales were actually sales.
I think it was probably one person that hit them all and, of course, never paid.

I don't even pay attention to Lincoln penny listings anymore. Once I see Lincoln I just keep scrolling because of people like this

I'm pretty certain that the watchers (most of them) are people seeing if it sells, that tells them that the bag full of no mint mark cents they have is worth a fortune.

Thee seller forgot to mention the large FG. The only year it was used.

That makes it ULTRA RARE!
