Here's an 1864-L Indian that got... umm... ventilated. ;) [IMG] [IMG]
Ha! I thought that wretched lot of abused Indians looked familiar! Who's the dastardly fellow who would send you such a pile of junk? ;)
Yep. Clipped (incomplete) planchet. Neat find. Not worth much, but cool, and worth a little bit more than a regular cent of that date would be,...
I agree, except for the part about dipping it in acetone over time. It's not worth the hassle, since it's just a quarter. Spend it.

Fancy serial numbers (indeed, paper currency in general) is not my area, but yeah, it's kinda neat....
I always kinda liked it, before it became politically taboo. I'm from Georgia, after all, and Stone Mountain is a beautiful place, despite its...

Nice matched set!
Here are two more "sentimentals" from my collection. Both are fairly low-value modern World coins, but they represent the two foreign countries I...
This metal detecting find is one of several "sentimental" coins for me. All of my detector finds are sentimental, in a way, because I can look at...
