All I can say from these photos is that the corrosion spots on the reverse seem to indicate that it's copper plated pot metal.
It's interesting that the portrait changed after only one year, then he died and that was it. I don't recall if there was a reason for the change....
Guess someone has to post a Voyageur. [ATTACH]
Last silver found in change, about 6 years ago. [ATTACH]
Don't forget logging! I was at the Lumberjack Days in Lolo 40 years ago, what a hoot that was. Axe throwing, log rolling, chainsaw race... It...
Nice example. So the question is whether a non-rotated example actually exists, and my hunch is that it doesn't. Maybe they didn't notice the...
Show us images of your own example. That seems to have been lost in all of this....
I don't think it really matters exactly how many degrees of rotation there were. If multiple examples could demonstrate some progression in the...
Thanks for the link. The article says the coin was flipped from left to right when photographed. The article image shows slightly less rotation...
How about a link to the article?
For reference, here's one I have, that I had once thought might be a blank. Note the sharp thin rim around one side, like yours, and similarity of...

When has there ever not been a war going on somewhere? Here's a montage of some of my WWII world coins. [ATTACH]Here's one of my favorites...
I wouldn't go that far. Cleanly missing a single letter like that I bet somebody would pay a dollar for it. It's just not "buy a yacht" or even...
In under the Tuesday wire, MST. Another tough date, both reverse types. The "thick ribbon" type (second coin) is really tough. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
If the chain is gold that was a good score. I got a thin gold chain at my wedding that weighs half an ounce, as much as the coin.
I have no idea. I've seen this type of display in almost every museum that has coins. One can hope they're inserted with extreme care and never...
You can look up tons of coins on their website. Of course, you have to know what they have and what you're looking for.
My childhood field trips were so memorable that I don't remember any of them. I vaguely recall seeing some coin exhibits in the Smithsonian ages...
Those 1845-CC dollars are difficult to come by.
