Seems like a pretty lack-luster design, but maybe that's just me.

 

It’s a what???

 

These are not intended for circulation, right? Looks like you found this roll searching?

For what it's worth, I have one for my type set, and I also have the same Gerber Scale design. Reverse proof though. The RP coins have some pretty limited mintages.

I do agree that the design is lacking. And horrible as a reverse proof, honestly:

 

I agree. Not much of a design but a keeper anyway!! Never seen one before. Had to look it up in myRed Book. Lol

 

I own this coin

@1stSgt22 ! Looks like a Coin used in a casino. Probably Foxwood's or Mohegan Sun Casino. Anyway, someone's loss.

 

Sal these dollars are in the Red Book. Actual US dollars from the Mint.

 

Okay, I was unaware of that. I usually only collect older coins.

 

Okay, sorry. Usually collect old coins.

 

Not much too that design.

 

I gave away an entire roll of this one, when they first came out:

 

I do a lot of CRHing. I do really like the obverse of the coins... and I own an American Innovators one (as shown by Mountain Man).

However, I am not a fan of the "flat" space. Thinking of the "new" (2006-pres) Nickels, I think all of the empty space makes imperfections painfully apparent. I'd prefer it to be filled in, if it would hide nicks and scratches better. Maybe it's just me.

 

I just got that one in a random (customer-rolled?) roll from the bank. Very good condition. Trying to research if it has value to anyone. [Guess that I can't attach images, yet.]
