Tonight on Teletrade... only starting at $12 + the BP...
PCGS MS66 Steel Cent


seriously though, why would the auction house even list something looking like that for sale. wow.
looks like a good candidate to be sent back to PCGS under the guarantee.

An average example is worth roughly $50. I'm not suggesting that someone buy it to make a few bucks under the guarantee. I'm suggesting when something like this comes in to Teletrade, they shouldn't even be listing it and they should encourage the owner to send it in under the guarantee.

TT sold one last month for 32 bucks.
12 (opening bid) + 8 (juice) + Shipping from TT + Shipping to PCGS isn't going to leave a whole lot of room.

Unfortunately, coins like this perpetuate the belief that TT is a bottom-feeder.

My thoughts exactly. Steel cents are very susceptible to environmental factors.
I have a full roll of Gems, mixed MM's so far all is good.
This is corrosion of sorts correct?

Practice makes perfect & nobody is perfect. So, practice being nobody.

I'm surprised it graded cleanly, and with a "superb gem" grade nonetheless.
