1943-D Bronze Lincoln: Flipped?

Forgive me if this has been discussed already -

I don't know much about Lincolns, but I was tempted to buy this thing for 100K just to flip it immediately to some Lincoln fanatic - at 175 or 200K my feet were freezing.

Seems like these kinds of coins always sell at auction and then trade immediately for 5% more on the 'aftermarket'.

Anybody know if this coin went to a dealer and flipped already?

Incidentally, I was compelled to visit my in-laws over the last week and was thankful that Adrian was having a huge crapfest with someguy named O'Connor so that I could spend 80% of the time during my visit hiding in the bedroom visiting this site. Thanks guys.

    I'm almost certain the coin went to a collector. I believe it was Tony Terranova who was the underbidder on the 43-D, but the winner was on the phone.

    Legend was the underbidder on the 43-P and the 44-P. We believe the coins will have new stature due to their inclusion in the top 10 of the 100 greatest US coins book.
