It is uncirculated, the penny says 1975. It is on a paper that has coincidences between Kennedy and Lincoln. It also has at the very bottom: "Planters and Stockman Bank, Your Friendly Bank, Full Service Member-FDIC Pocahontas, Ark." I don't know anything about it. Is it rare? Is it something I should put up and keep safe? Thank you to anyone who answers this thread.   08-24-2005, 03:59 PM   #2 (permalink) The_Cave_Troll The Coin Troll     Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Dallas Posts: 2,506 The coin itself isn't rare, even with Kennedy counterstamped into it. The fact that it still has the paperwork with it is rlatively uncommon. I'd put it away as something to save, but I'm a packrat too. It has no added numismatic value since as far as coin collectors go, the counterstamp is considered damage, but if you could find someone who collects Arkansas bank memorabilia then you might get something for it. good luck! __________________ "From time to time the Tree of Liberty must be refreshed with the blood of Patriots and of Tyrants." -Thomas Jefferson   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
