    I don’t get it - do you think that there should be zero incorrect responses to a thread like that, and that everyone on this forum should be an expert and be able to diagnose a matte Lincoln from photographs? After all, you’re on here, and forgive me if I’m wrong, but you’re not an expert.

    No ! I am not an expert by any means and was never my quote I was or am ! .....But when so called experts can even identify a 1909 Cent VBD variety error and recognize Houston we have a problem! ....That's like not validating a !955 DDO ... 🤣 #DumDum

    Lmfao. Your mother is ashamed.

    Nope ! It's called morals and not being taken advantage of

    Nobody tried to take advantage of you. Did you receive an offer to purchase?

    You posted a misidentified coin and didn't even ask a question. You expected us to all go trying to authenticate the coin when you didn't even ask us that. But to mention the 4th or 5th person correctly identified the coin and found the listing.

    Uh no first 3 comments are no not rare not worth anything ....I have a ton of those blah blah blah

    No I posted this fake picture for a reason to point out that all or most comments didn't give the validation or truth !!

    Nope ......Think before speak it's pretty simple! Know wtf your talking about before you give information

    Maybe you could have deliberated a bit more and thought about how you delivered that. After all, it is how you deliver it.

    I have been here many years as a frequent visitor and infrequent poster. My experience over 15 or so years is that there is a wealth of valuable information here. There are many experts in the field who freely share their knowledge. Lurking here, while posting infrequently, has taught me a lot.

    I’m sorry that you came in suspicious of a group of extremely knowledgeable people and were not able to realize how wonderful this resource is. Had you followed your own advice - More respectful replies it’s how you deliver it - perhaps you could have benefitted from this community. Unfortunately that is your loss, not anyone else”s.

    It only took about three forum members to identify the coin.

    FWIW... thought this would be another crap coin and thought.... day-yum

    About as far as I got.

    Typically my patience runs out in June.... gonna be a long 2025
