This one and 3 other Lincoln Cents were part of a small group of coins
that the fella's grandfather left him when he passed away in the
1970's. Three of the keys have issues of some kind, some worse than
others. All are inexpensive reflecting these issues.

Normally I'd wholesale all of these, but I'm so low on inventory that
I thought I'd give these all a 5 day auction on fleabay.

Voltronicus: These were all originally uncirculaed, but are now a
piercing scream away from unc.

The 1909-S Vdb has sold via Buy It Now on eBay. Shows how popular
these are.

Low on inventory, eh?
That's odd considering 95% of your eBay auctions don't sell!

95%....... you wish. Perhaps 60% don't sell on eBay first time around,
but nearly all sell, just not always on eBay.

I wonder what coin has been in your inventory longest? perhaps one your
keeping for yourself?

Yeah, I know, none of my business.

I'd bet that for an open ended auction, that 1909 S VDB would have
gone for $500 +, the dings aren't that distracting. Some real "dog"
versions of this coin command $250 or more on eBay ...

Maybe so, but it went for $289, my BIN price, and at that price no
one's
expectations. It won't get returned at the price paid by the buyer.
