Hang around with Tool & Die guys...you get to experience some heavy objects. Some progressive dies are enormous (and quite heavy). And some of...
OK, Spark...who's drink holder did those 'environmentally challenged' cents come from?
It's hard to toss back something that has withstood time in circulation to remain in fine condition. And for a cent, easy to set aside for the...
The effect you see there is caused by play in the tool/equipment during the coining process. It smears the devices, and sometimes the profile,...
An acetone soak perhaps? But it might be in there so long that you'll need to hide it from the light. Just not sure that you'll be able to get...
Good question. The material fold over might occur a few different ways. I took a quick look at Error-Ref.com and did searches under 'foil' and...

Found by @SensibleSal66 in Pocket Change - Pocket change find! 1958 LWC- MS?? | Coin Talk Congrats on the fun find!! And yes...you still can...
Just looks like a circulated coin to me. But for the record, why did you think DDR? Why did you think DDD? Why did you think MD?
