A little birdie forwarded this bit of recent correspondence relating to a commercial offer. Thanks.

Dear Expert,
Perhaps you can help me. I am interested in rare coins and the tremendous profits they offer.
I recently saw this advertisement. Do you think I should mortgage my house and make an
investment?
Wondering in Washington
VAULT RELEASE—RARE LINCOLN PENNIES!!!
Security Coin Advisory Marketing (SCAM) offers this limited opportunity.
Available only from us:
Vault Bags of Lincoln Pennies guaranteed to have either the Lincoln Memorial or a
Shield on the reverse. We assure you that there are no wheat reverse coins; guaranteed.
Every coin is certified as MS-71 by Certified Rarities Authentication Professionals (CRAP). No messy plastic holders to deal with or to store as the entire bag is certified at once, with certification in ink directly on the outside canvas by the signatures of two guards, another innovation!
This is a higher grade than any other rare company can offer! Other certification services
offer no coins at all above MS-70.
Each coin is guaranteed to be made at the Philadelphia, Denver, or San Francisco Mint.
We guarantee that there will be no West Point coins, doubled dies, or striking errors.
Each bag contains 1,000 pennies, as counted by our row of uniformed guards on our
production line (with security vaults in the background). Wait! There’s more! As a bonus
every bag will also include five (5) Jefferson nickels guaranteed to have been minted since
1937!
Your cost is just $49.95 per bag! (Plus just $10 shipping)
Strict limit of 10 bags per buyer per day; offer expires December 31, 2019. Each bag
comes with a numbered certificate of authenticity.

This offer is limited only to buyers who can qualify on these points:
• 1. You must have a zip code starting with a number from 0 to 9. Anyone without a zip code
cannot place an order. This is a very strict rule; sorry, no exceptions.
• 2. Our toll-free operators are available only from 12:01 a.m. until 11:55 p.m. each day,
except April 1. Positively no orders can be placed from 11:55 p.m. to 12 midnight, or on April 1.
• 3. Payment must be made in cash or by credit card. In addition, American Gold Eagles are
accepted at the spot price for bullion, less 10% service and handling.
Disclaimer: SCAM is an independent company. We are not affiliated with the government or any numismatic
association. Thus, we can give more liberal investments than would be possible under regulation. With us the sky’s
the limit! We do not reveal our clients’ names to any agency or authority. Only you will know of your private
reserve!
The prices of collectible coins can vary depending upon the economic climate, the weather, the strength of the
aftermarket (if there is one), and other factors. Accordingly, neither SCAM nor any other company can guarantee
profits. We do mention that there are some pennies such as 1793 that sell for thousands of dollars.
Why invest in penny stocks when you can invest in pennies themselves?
