Geez, Richard. I have but small interest in wheatie cents, in fact I have
box after box of two by twoed cents similar to what you are offering.
Still, when I seen the time you put in making your date, grade and retail
price chart, I had to bid (sorry Mike). The problem with selling coins
such as these is the retail values really represent something less ( or
more?) than market demand value. When you see a retail price of 25 cents,
or 50 cents, that probably means the coin doesn't really carry a premium
other than required by a dealer for handling the item at all. I'm not
knocking your auction at all, I'm just saying it won't be surprising if the
auction ends at less than 25 cents on the dollar. I expect the same thing
when I get around to selling my cents, most of which comprise of higher
grade commons or low grade semi-keys. Bill

It matters not what they go for as long as they go to some one who will
appreciate them.
I am not looking to make a fortune out of them. They have all been in my
collection and replaced by better coins. I don't want to make people think
they are getting something they are not. As long as I cover my eBay fees I
am happy. I think everyone should know what they are getting from eBay
regardless of the price so I have no problem spending a few extra minutes
listing all the coins.

Thanks for looking and or bidding

Richard

LOL! Don't be sorry! I am always glad when a good seller gets a good price! I
also don't collect wheat cents, but was somewhat struck by his research. Had I
been a collector the price would have gone higher! Mike

Thanks for posting your other auction. I hope you can recover your
eBay fees on this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=2203295 717

Will your winning bidder get the coin pictured AND a PCGS slabbed
coin? Is the value of the PCGS coin according to their fantasy online
price guide or closer to CDN bid?

Does the value of the PCGS slab include the grading fees? If so, a
cynical bidder might expect a body-bagged common nickel or cent. If
not, and if you had to bear the cost of PCGS grading, you will have
paid quite a price for this entertaining, educational auction.

They will definitely go to someone who will appreciate them :-) I'm a
sucker for Lincolns, so this will start my fourth set.

My PC was giving me trouble last night so I had to reboot a couple of
times. When I pulled the auction up it had 19 seconds left and was sitting
at $13.51. I couldn't let it go for that, so I threw out a bid real fast
and ended up getting the win with two seconds to spare.
