In response to your question, this is what the grading companies refer to as a "Mechanical Error." There are quite a few out there, but it is not...
Some of these copper coins are difficult. This example does not look like blatant AT from the photo, but as has been stated one has to be more...
Pictures are questionable...if it looks like what I suspect, then I've seen coins like that pass....I'm sort of split on it so I'll be cautious...
It would also have been raw at that point as the slab (at least as we know it) wasn't out yet (it wouldn't be until the 1980s that slabs started...
Fair enough. I’ve just seen this one posted enough times that I remember it now. :D And it’s fine if toning isn’t your thing. We all like...

Great to hear that things are looking up and hopefully you'll be posting more now! Looks UNC to me, but there are some hits in focal areas. I'll...
With the Franklin, I'm not certain. I've seen some colorful proofs, but this one is a bit different. I suspect it might have already been toned...
The Kennedy will be called as the results seem clear. Let's move on to to the PR 64 Franklin posted above the summary post (post #644). Edit:...
Gold. You're full of gold! :D
Thanks for looking! That photo does show all three pretty well.
That might be a good way to get a two for one package. Find some tins with cookies or candy (there should be some Christmas ones on sale now at...
I know your pictures are honest. I should rephrase my question. Are there cuts on the rims and/or a small chunk missing? I'm guessing the grade...
