I figure it is about time for another contest. Besides, I have been finding too many Indian Head Cents lately so I need to boot one off the reservation. I just listed a bag of wheat cents on eBay starting at 9 cents with no reserve. Here is a link to the info in the Buy/Sell section of the forum:
You must be logged in to see this link.
Guess the closing price.
All guesses must be posted in this thread.
Guesses must be posted by midnight Wednesday forum time.
1 guess per person.. no editing.
Closest guess wins an Indian Head Cent from my hoard.
Good luck on your guesses.

Every 300 bags misteroman.. I just don't know which one it is.
I actually found a 24-D in my zinc rejects last week.
I am liking these guesses, but I think some of them might be on the high side. |

| Let's just say I have enough Indian Head Cents where I can occasionally share one with my buddies on the board like texcattlerancer. But with a $45 guess I think he is going to be "still taunted" |

I was banking on TSHTF and prices dropping dramatically. It's a long shot, but I will be the only one with a price in that range. Now, if somebody chooses $44 or $46 to cut me by a dollar either way, I'm going to be pi----. |

`Everybody is ignorant. Only on different subjects.' Will Rogers
"This is the shabby secret of the welfare statists' tirades against gold. Deficit spending is simply a scheme for the "hidden" confiscation of wealth. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process. It stands as a protector of property rights. If one grasps this, one has no difficulty in understanding the statists' antagonism toward the gold standard." Alan Greenspan, 1966. |
