Astounding!

no it has not been authenticated at all

Now, why do I not believe that? [Hint -If it had been authenticated it would have gone to auction with an expected price much more than $10,300.]
Maybe that means someone who knows actually looked at it and pronounced it a heap of merde. So, it was not authenticated.

And, love the photos. Must have taken lots of shots to get such a poor lot of out of focus and/or motion blurred pics.

The other coins are probably worth the $300 (premium on $10,000). But...hard to tell from the photos.
You can buy replica 1930 pennies (pence?) from Hong Kong for $7.50, postage included.

I take a gamble every week on eBay but not to the tune of 10K.
The buyer is either a Fool, Basically Stupid or spending their EX wife's/husband's money :laugh2:

The feedback suggests something out of the norm.  The buyer is Ocram055.  They have a 91 feedback rating and this sellers feedback to the buyer was "HI THERE OCRAM. :')".  Ocram buys few coins but seems to concentrate on pennies.  May be a legit buyer but very unusual feedback comment and an unusual transaction.

A gamble is when there's a chance it is real, this is clearly an altered date, so really the buyer is just paying $10,000 for an altered date penny.
