Messed-with small cents?

lkeigwin

Does anyone know this ebay seller or what his game is?

The photos of the small cents are very juiced and/or the coins are recolored and possibly whizzed. I love the '22 no-D especially.

What do you think is going on here?

You're joking about the 22 right? I did not look at all the coins,but the 09 Proof definately looks whizzed or polished. I'd guess most are messed with.

I think the 1909-s Indian is a fake. The 0 is the wrong font (too round) and the S is
pretty skinny for the real deal.

Is it just me or is *something* not right about the 09SVDB other than appearing cleaned and recolored?

Personally my favorite (sarcasm of course) is the 12-S. Looks like it spent just a little too much time on a buffing wheel......

The 09S VDB is almost certainly whizzed, along with some others. Many others are 'only' dipped....the only ones that looked Ok were a couple of the later dates, and a couple of the brown ones. Didn't check for authenticity diagnostics, but given everything else, some of the key dates may be suspect.
And like someone else pointed out, I can't believe the bids he is getting on these!
