This is what happens if you have a coin in a 2x2, accidentally leave it in your jeans, throw them in the washing machine, and let them sit for two days before you get around to drying them.

    Put it on eBay.

    "This is war nickel that was actually used during world war II. It was dropped from a u.s. bomber in an attempt to entice Hitler from his bunker. It was only recently uncovered during excavation where Hitler's bunker once was. Now is you chance to own this piece of history. There is not another like it anywhere".

    looking at his feedback he hasn't sold any coins in a while, I don't know seems to be a bad e-bay seller to me. SCAMMER!!!

    An obvious shill!! Notice his buddies, (they're the ones with low feedback and history of buying $5 comic books and bicycle pedals) are running the price up on the other guy.

    PS- Around here, if you wash your jeans and leave 'em in the washer for two days prior to drying them, they will have a decidedly beery, mildewy scent, and the "vomit-colored" spots will not only be on the coins in the pockets, but the fabric as well...

    Hmm. Let me guess: bachelor? image

    Now that I am the winner, I am having second thoughts...Kind of like buyers regret. I wonder if I could get the seller to provide me with an Reverse scan of that penny, or is it the obverse that is missing? Kind of hard to tell what is missing!

    The toning does not look attractive to me. These war nickels can take on some odd toning because of their composition. The soap, drier and what ever is in the jeans did not enhance its eye appeal. Looks like an MS-61 to me.

    I am very suspect of anyone who out bids me. Especially when we are talking 50x bid. Must be a shill. Where do I make a complaint. Ebay, Justice Dept, No- I'll go to the top and take it to the President.

    The simple facts are that Lucy bid those two BullDoogies under the table! Once the price rose, they caved in! How many people can say that they came out on top of a auction that had a total of 19 bids?
