Impossible to strike a coin on a larger planchet. You can only strike smaller coins or the same size coins. It certainly looks interesting.
This coin was found in a roll of US pennies. IT'S THE SAME SIZE. Country The Bahamas Type Standard circulation coin Years 1985-2004 Value 1...
You are wrong. The current current copper plated zinc cents from the Bahamas are the EXACT same size as ours. Same weight, same diameter, same...

The 1982 and 1983's are often mushy, and hard to find in good condition in circulation. This 1982-D stood out. It looks much better in hand than...
From 1942-1945 the US removed the metal nickel from nickels, and the 75% copper and 25% nickel nickels now contained 56% copper 35% silver and 9%...
While my degree (B.A. Economics) was not a cash cow, it did help me get a couple of jobs. So I can't complain.
