Nerva 96 AD -

 

Sure are a lot of bent, cleaned, and damaged 1831 cents out there!

 

I posted it deliberately to show y'all it is mine now!

 

Although my 1831 isn;t that badly beat up, I tell people it was in Davy Crockett's pocket at the Alamo. Or at least it could have been.

 

15 yard post-mint damage.
I claim victory...

 

1810

 

Shouldve saved one of those pennies or dimes i found coin roll hunting to post here. Dang

 

I have 18,100,000 mutilated pennies. Would that be the most?

 

Nice Lorenzian!

I'm in with this gem from 1959:



Got this bad boy in change the other day and I put it with my collection as sacrificial copper. But if it wins it's status in the ole coin box may be elevated!

 

The date on this one might be a weeee bit on edge but with magnification bright light (and a little internet image matching to be sure)
My 1858-A 1 kreuzer (Austrian) got this in one of my "burried ancient roman coin" lots...Dealer sent me a whole 2nd lot of 10 coins when i sent him pic's of this hehe

 

OK. Beat this bad boy. An 1864 IHC that I have in a 2X2 in a red box and do consider part of my collection.

 

if lonegun's counts with that date I'm sure mine passes

 

Take a second look. :yes:

 

hehe Mine is very ledgable in hand just hard to photo when woman keeps stealing my lights.

 

Same here. The race is on.
