This is a very interesting piece. I know what it looks like to me, but why on earth was it done? It looks like someone used a belt driven sander...
They did not come in an actual holder back then. Which is why a photo of the coin accompanies it, to prevent someone from pairing the certificate...
I like it!! I'll guess $135.00
I hate to break the bad news to you, but your '69-S Lincoln cent is not the "Big One". The real deal will be very obvious.
Thank you much!! :)
LOL. No worries... That's the fun part with guessing on a multi page GTG thread. :)
Can we get a mod to please kill that other thread? @desertgem, @ToughCOINS, @GDJMSP thanks..

Nice rusty dies!!! We may need to start a thread to show off rusty dies. :)
Tell Ed I said thank you.. I'll give this 1883 the EW Bean!! I think he should put out a Gold EW Bean. :) I figure he can guess after the...
That is what I mean. I see what you are seeing, whomever polished the reverse up did not get the pitting all out. The heaviest is seen on the...
