Cool. Nickels would be my denomination of choice for such a project. Somewhere I have an old Whitman folder that I decided to try to fill from...
So I eventually determined. This one was educational.
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Not hugely valuable, of course, but a neat find.
Neat.
I agree that it should probably stay in that holder. It does risk losing a point in grade and dropping down to a BN designation if resubmitted....

Nice portrait and interesting hairstyle. My only Faustina II to date was this rather well-worn denarius. 'Twas what I refer to as a "cheerful...
I'm going to allow this entry post I received on the CollectiveCoin site where the images are hosted, even though it was not made here and does...

That one appears to be a minor lamination error. Planchet flaw, in other words. @paddyman98 or one of the other error-savvy folks can tell you a...
PS- I thought gallows at first, too. Those are worth some $$$. But then I realized it must be some kind of machinery, and altered my search...
Here you go. Yours is a pretty rough example, and thus not worth very much monetarily, but a cool ca. 1811-1812 British token type, nonetheless.
