2 Mystery coins from eBay auction identified

seatedcoins

I was following this auction last night. It had 3 coins; a common holed 1850 cent, 1787 coin?, and a 1753 coin?.

Text

I looked up the coins to try to find out what kind of coins they are. I'm 95% sure I know what they are, but I won't mention what I think they are till later.

So...For those out there who like a hunt, let me know what kind of coins the 1753 and 1787 are.

It was only $6.00 going into the last minute. I bid quite low and didn't get it. I would of bid more if the guy had some previous sales, but didn't want to get taken for much. By the way I think the 1787 is worth something.


I believe the 1787 coin is a CONNETICUT COPPER - LEFT BUST and
the 1753 is a Colonial Half Penny

Yeah that's what I thought. I think it is really his account he uses to shill bid for his real account. I just didn't want to risk more than $15 on this auction.

Not much of a shill bidder...has only bid on one item in the last 30 days
