The line "u can see all the way around it that its hollow " makes me suspect an acid soaked coin where the copper core has been eaten well into...
Unless a whole lot of those scratches, nicks and dings are on the holder to me is is seriously overgraded. If this was a modern piece with all...
Nah, It's not that bad. Just don't let them chew on it.
The 76b should have plain edges, that isn't a problem. And I know about thick planchets that are supposed to have lettered edges that miss the...
