I'm just curious.   11-05-2009, 02:38 PM   #2 (permalink) Treashunt The Other Frank     Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: New York Posts: 16,658 yes. Several DDO's, Lincoln cents, 1972 I believe, not the better one tho. One or two blank planchets (cents). And other stuff. __________________ The Other Frank "Buy The Book Before The Coin!" http://www.whitmanbooks.com/Default....wUpcoming_1208   11-05-2009, 03:20 PM   #3 (permalink) bobbeth87 Coin Collector     Join Date: Apr 2009 Location: I live near Houston, Texas Posts: 1,801 My Mood: Blank cent planchet, 98 WAM, 74D DDO Half, 82 no FG half, 83 no FG half, Lamination error on cent, several nice struck through errors, etc. __________________ Bob   11-05-2009, 03:43 PM   #4 (permalink) Captainkirk 73 Buick Riviera owner     Join Date: Feb 2005 Location: Girard PA Posts: 1,049 My Mood: Blog Entries: 1 I got a 10 dollar bill in change from the supermarket that had 'wet ink transfer' on it.
