Holy cow!! You not gonna believe this one.... 1722 rosa for $20!

Yeah was a "what the hell" kinda bid more to see what it would sell for... never expected to win it for a $20... Ok it's dinged but one hell of an interesting hole filler for my colonial set

It could literally crumble any second!!!but for $20 not bad.

 

Some people prefer the uglies. All I can say!
I have a few ugly coins myself. We all do. That is one I'd be proud to insult!
Heres one of mine. Certainly not as cool as yours (and was less)

 

I like it might be picking up an holed "ugly head" george in a day or 2 if it's as nice as I'm told it is

 

Of course, I'd love to see if it does become yours.
No pressure

 

nice mines the Dei grata rex varity

 

I am a big fan of the Rosa coins, it appears to be a penny I believe? Syd Martin wrote a book on them, great for attribution but yours might be a little tough. I was checking out a holed ugly head last year before the coins shows shut down. They are really rare, I think less than 10 known to exist.

 

Here’s my ugly colonial coin. 1710-AA 30 Deniers. Cost was $3.

I don’t think they’re supposed to be razor thin.
