Fla. Couple Sells Penny for $660G Friday, July 21, 2006 WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A rare coin has brought a Florida couple a pretty penny. Denis Loring and Donna Levin bought the 1792 copper penny at auction last year for $437,000. They sold it in May for $660,000. The coin originally was owned by descendants of Oliver Wolcott, who was a signer of the Declaration of Independence and Connecticut's governor in the 1790's. The chocolate-colored coin is one of only nine known to exist. Dallas-based Heritage Auction Galleries arranged the sale and said the buyer, "an East Coast energy company executive," wants to remain anonymous. foxnews.com
