    Ehh? Something's screwy. That exact coin sold for $160 in the Teletrade auction right before the one the OP references.

    Certainly was misfiled and didn't fit the lot title. Wrong images on the lot. I'd call TT in the AM and get it straightened out. They will otherwise probably deliver the SMS nickel. However, for $12 to get 1 '67 PCGS gem SMS 5c might be somewhat desirable. Too bad for the consignor.

    Ok, who's Troy Wiseman? That's a common, common coin in 62. Certainly not worth $160. Maybe worth $35 no matter who previously owned it. I'll even add the $15 grading fee on top of it and I still don't come anywhere near $160.

    << <i>Ok, who's Troy Wiseman? >>



    Beats me - I googled! He's B.U.M.!

    The Wiseman Collection is among the most complete and diverse that Heritage has ever handled, but the story of this exceptional collector, businessman, and philanthropist is about much more than coins - it's about one man's good deeds confronting the global orphan problem through the worldwide ministry of WorldOrphans.org. Mr. Wiseman was born into a relatively poor family, and left his North Florida home of Ocala at seventeen years of age. After a few months stop in Texas (to replenish his funds), he arrived in Southern California with only a few dollars left, but buoyed by his faith and a strong work ethic instilled by a former wrestling coach and his father. Through his hard work, his business success blossomed, and the apparel company he co-founded (Cami'z, Inc.) grew to become B.U.M. International, a $120 million clothing company with factories in 19 countries. Selling out of B.U.M at age 26 and feeling restless after a few months, he soon founded a new company, The InvestLinc Group, to serve the needs of former entrepreneurs and business executives alike. Mr. Wiseman co-founded World Orphans in 1993, which since then has funded the construction of over 500 orphanages in 46 countries and has rescued over 25,000 children. We invite you to read more about WorldOrphans.org on their website.

    Especially for the 1967 PCGS 65 SMS 5c he'll receive unless Teletrade nullifies the sale. I am not sure that they are in a position to do so, even on behalf of the consignor, as long as the buyer wants the coin. They screwed up by putting the wrong image files on that lot and the consignment contract probably puts the burden on the consignor to identify errors before the live auction begins. Oh well.

    For twelve bucks, there's a no-brainer!

    Edit: you might actually be edging towards "you suck" territory... almost. image

    Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.
