1943 Copper Cent for $500

I was watching this lot. No returns, 1943 Copper cent. What is interesting is that during the period the auction ran, the seller received a feed back for an item they bought in early February (a copper coated 1943 Cent).

The usual no return thing.

Now that it has closed, can you let the buyer know they are going to lose $500?

    Man - whoever bought that thing is sure going to be dissapointed when they find a memorial reverse on it! That looks like a reworked modern die job! - Someone should report that to Ebay!!!

    You can't protect people from their own greed. This buyer will whine about being cheated but who's fault is it?

    In coins, as in almost everything else, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. image

    He's making a greater percentage profit than the guy that recently sold one for $212,000. image
