Two pennies walk into a bar... The bartender says "Get outta here!"
That BBC article really stretches the truth. "The coins, which are made from pure copper, pre-date 1943, when the US began using other metals to...
Way too big for a bicycle chain, unless you mean motorcycle. Looks to be 1.5x diameter of a quarter in width.
"This listing was ended by the seller because the item was lost or broken." Hahahahaha. Nice of them to keep using the same reverse die I guess....

I have a ziplock bag full from years ago. I wonder if they've gotten to AMAZING yet.

Here's one I ran into while poking around. The reverse is kind of a "fantasy", isn't it? (I'm not familiar with all the varieties of real ones)....
In my mind Carr crosses the fantasy boundary with his 1964 Peace dollars, since they were actually minted. Maybe Smith falls in a similar...
