Oh. Well, I know two dealers in Buffalo who go to shows, buy up old holders for older coins (pre-1960) crack them out, and resubmit them. It must...

Couldn't Hoffman have melted a real copper cent and made an obverse and reverse wheat die from it, thereby making it metallicly kosher? I mean,...
I can't find a record of one at Heritage, Great Collections, or Stacks & Bowers
