2011D Early Release Lincoln Penny

 

I just added the 2011D Early Release Lincoln Penny to my registry set. I purchased this coin from a seller that sells on Ebay and advertises here on the NGC website. This seller had this coin for sell on both Ebay and his website. The coin listed on Ebay went for more than double the amount I paid from his website. This just proves once again that you should always do you research when buying coins. With the addition of this penny I have moved into 2nd place for 1959-Date Lincoln penny registry sets. I hope you enjoy my coin and always, thanks for looking and Happy Collecting

I do like the new reverse design much much better than the Memorial reverse. You're right, best to do research and buy from whatever source, internet, ebay, local dealer, that has the best price. Seems interesting that the 1959 to present set contains both the 2009 through 2011 coins as they do represent a new reverse design(s). I wonder if that set will be redesignated 1959-2008 and a new 2009 + set will emerge?

They have broken these sets up. I presently have the #1 set for the 1959-2008. They have sets now for just the 2009, 2010 and 2011.

I had a similar experience from the same seller I am sure. The 2011-P MS69FT dime sold in an auction on Sunday night for $320, and I purchased the exact same coin (Early Releases holder and all) on their website for $59 + $6 shipping = $65. That's almost 5 times the amount that someone paid in an auction as what they were selling it (without competition) on their website! Crazy!!!! Homework indeed! People need to shop around!!!
