Pay no attention to the thumbnails above. The man behind the curtain did this.
I can't wait for Larry's response on this one. :confused:o_O
After the last several post today, I don't even know if I should try to help or suggest a pony to pet. Sheesh.
Larry, do not be so quick on it not being re-plated. There are many seasoned collectors here with a lot of knowledge. Using caps and jumping up...
TMI...LOL
That WAS a soda pop for me and included the 2 cent deposit. But I was more inclined to gather another 2 cents and get a comic book for 12 cents.
Nice find and Best of Variety. I found one a few years back in my GF's change jar.
Entry Post Thank you so much for doing this.
@lordmarcovan I think the one you ended up picking up is just fine and a very important piece of history you are now holding. The other was a bit...

Pareidolia from a bad plating job.
Hobo nickels are cool if they are old. If they are beyond redemption as collectible today, that's okay also. They are serving a purpose as an art...

I see you have posted this on another forum? I did find a Margaret Bell Wilcot but the dates are not close to this 1922 coin. (Ancestry.com)

That one I like. Counter stamped coins have some really interesting history to research. I have to take this one off any list of ruined coins,...
I'm not trying to feed the trolls but this is why I repeat...these people need validation so they can sell it somewhere using your info from here...
@Collecting Nut Have you torn out any of your walls yet? You never know, especially with you. :)
Well, it's a first for me seeing a lamination on a zinc cent.
