I cannot believe that anyone who has that much money to spend on a coin would spend it on that coin. Lots of shills is my guess, in the hopes of trying to find a sucker.

Looks all good to me.

Somebody's going to be disappointed with a copper coated zinc penny.

Toolhaus.org is starting to sound the same as her old PJD1966 eBay name.

Too bad there's no way to warn the bidders.

Wow! Just in the last 15 minutes of the auction the bidding jumped over $5,000.

I intended to warn the buyer--but "User ID kept private".

Actually its copper plated steel since the zinc plating is first removed prior to the copper plating. This type of counterfeit is easy to detect with a magnet. The altered date fakes (usually a 1948) can be more difficult to detect. The most difficult to detect are the counterfeits struck from false dies manufactured using real hardened steel 1943 cents as hubs. These same dies are used to create fake mint errors by striking real cents of various dates off center making sure the 1943 date doesn't show.

You would think that coins that are this rare and show up so frequently on e-bay would have been certified by at least some of the past owners by now. They always seem to show up in some pen scribbled on 2X2... and you gotta ask what person of sound mind would entrust such a rare coin to be sold by some dinky e-bayer in the first place...
