Might be a deal....

I'd email the seller for clarification first.

Here's the reply that I received from this seller. Her feedback is untarnished as far as negs are concerned:

Good morning.

Thank you for your interest. You are reading the description correctly.
The obverse side of this coin is a Mercury dime and the reverse side is a
Lincoln Wheat penny. It appears that the two coins were soldered together
or it was a printing mistake. We can not say for sure what happened to the
coin.

Please contact me if I can be of any further assistance.

Thank you.

Quote "soldered together"

????

If that is true then it is simply two coins stuck together?

It's a magician's coin. I have one too with the Mercury reverse and Lincoln obverse. I hope this "coin" wasn't planted to bring in the curiousity seekers, driving up the price on these common wheats.

This is unclaimed property sold by the state. Would be surprising if games are being played to attract bidders.

Would be easy to tell. Ask if one side is silver and the other side bronze.

Braddick....PRECISELY MY CONCLUSION!...

It's a common, manufactured "coin."

Personally, I don't think it is two coins soldered together, I think it was "printed" that way! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW! HAW!

State of PA or not, the whole setup looks fishy to me.

$45 for 250 wheats is somewhat pricey - plus the "special" eleven center

Guys and gals, there is nothing "fishy" about these auctions. They are for unclaimed estates in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. They do get bid up to redicilous figures though.....Ken
