hah, here's another $50 steel penny. Looks like it's been cleaned. I'm not sure why, but ads like this just irritate me. People watching to many television shows, that tell all thier crap is worth fortunes.

Oh, this is the worst-looking hat I ever saw. What, when you buy a hat like this I bet you get a free bowl of soup, huh?

Oh, it looks good on you though.

You should contact him, and let him know that you can sell him as many as he wants for $25 each. Who could resist the urge to easily double their money with such a highly collectible coin?
