It is a decent looking 1987 Lincoln.....probably AU55.
Before I return it I'll post a pic so it can be used in the future diagnostic threads on the differences between a 1909 s vdb and a 1987 P, this may prove helpful to someone like myself in the future.
Also I will only be able to show a pic of the Reverse as my camera for some reason has been acting up.
Are you going to have to send a notarized statement from the postal employee who witnessed what was inside when you opened the package? Because you know the seller is going to claim that you switched what was inside.
Good point Dennis, The mailman signed and dated the envelope an stated what it contained right on the envelope, I will keep that and return the "rare" 1987 Lincoln.
I'll send a scan of the Priorty Envelope with the signature......

This is EXACTLY why it was so important to open the package in front of a USPS employee. When you send back the modern POS, the seller can't say you did not send back what he/she shipped. You can submit a letter, signed by the USPS employee, that the coin being returned is the same one you received. Send it certified mail.
This moron probably didn't think you were half as smart as you are (or the members here giving you advice are). This is a classic fraud.
Actually, thinking about it. You should send back the penny without any fanfair at all. Of course have a USPS employee or police officer verify the contents before you ship it. THen, when the seller gets the penny back and says you scammed, him BAMO, you have two counts of interstate mail fraud on him. That's when you bust out all the evidence you have on what you received, what you shipped, ect.

Keep your evidence tight lipped until you get their response from the return. You can get them with some very serious offenses if try to lie their way out of this.

Oh, ok now I get it .... this was all done for a Seinfeld episode.
Insuring the GARBAGE through USPS for $900.00 would be fraud. And, the insurance would NEVER pay upon loss.
Send it Priority/SignatureConfirmation. Enter the SigCon number in the PP console as soon as the item shows delivered at usps.com.
PayPal is unlikely to have disbursed the funds to the SCUM. Your entire refund can come from his/her PP account. Otherwise, you get $200 from PP, and you will have to file the CC chargeback in order to get the $700.00 back.
Folks Who Bite Get Bitten. Folks Who Don't Bite Get Eaten.
Have you had any communication with Dave Coffee (the SCO buyer), as far as what's going on with his dispute with Shears? Hopefully, he also had a Postal worker witness the opening of his envelope.
I did email him when I got the shipment, he did contact ebay & paypal, so I think he is getting the same info as I am, as far as a witness when he opened his package, I don't know but he was certainly aware of what could happen.......so he probably took some precautions....
I also emailed the guy who bought the coins the day before from the POS........I have not heard back from him..

Yeah, I was wondering about the one who won the "huge lot of old gold". Hopefully, there will be criminal charges for fraudulent schemes, etc. for the three events.

Bizarre. Good luck!
About egual to the odds of that coin being a genuine 09svdb.
