My only explanation for it going at this price. Likely plated, and people want to take a chance, but who would take this risk?

With eBay/Paypal though, you can get a refund for just about anything. Although this cent is clearly plated/altered and the story doesn't add up (how many wheaties have you dug up that look like that without them being fully green?) I can see how someone would be willing to pay the $200 on a gamble and if it isn't real (keep in mind he used the material:Copper in the description) and even though he says no returns/refunds, PayPal has a different policy...

eBay is great for buyers... Not so much for sellers.

I cant wait to see the Feedback after the guy recieves it, Its obvisou the guy knows what he is selling. I like how he makes such a bold statement about not knowing about coins..effin Scammers

I would have just spent the 4 bucks for a fake copper 43

Yikes!!! That is so wrong.
I bought a plated one back a long time ago for about 50 cents. It was purely a novelty coin and advertised as such.
