what about the thickness of the letters in "pluribus unum"? I thought it was MD at first but I'm not sure any more. It's definitely a neat coin...
I want some opinions on this one. Thanks in advance.
Is the point to see how much pressure it takes to ruin a coin?
Very nice! It finally sunk in that about 40% of mixed rolls around here are shield cents. I've been looking closer. So far no shield ddo's but I...
hahahah OK I'll take a blade to the edge
I am joking. I had a cent that had raised areas that I thought were from a die chip. A few people suggested I should "send it in" to be...
In another insane post: I found something strange. This coin was very tarnished so I soaked it in mineral oil followed by lacquer thinner. The...

I wasn't even considering your proposition. I was so caught up in my head trying to figure out what I have. I usually don't even look at newer...
Sorry for any misunderstanding. I found the first one but like an idiot I posted it before looking online to find it. I was roll hunting the next...
So nuts, here I am comparing one DDO to another DDO that I picked up the same day and convincing myself that was the normal date.
I'm not offering anything for sale... I'm here to collect and ask opinions. I did put the wrong pics in the post above though. Here are the real...
They are similar but slightly different. I've got to figure out what I have... These are pics of the second one.
I found another 2009D presidential cent roll hunting and put it aside for comparison. I looked and they both had the fat nine skinny topped 0's...
No I think it's just a regular penny
I don't think I have anything at all.
