You are working pretty hard to save a penny. I think it is more interesting the way it is. Sure, find out what happened, but, otherwise leave it...
And, it is a nice American coin.
We've discussed this before. When advertisements are sent with coins glued to them the impressions are backwards and can peel off and stick to...
I can't even guess with it upside down and blurry.
You would have to show better how it is oriented. Perhaps standing it in front of a mirror. I can't tell with just the 2 flat surface photos.
I'll have to check that out. But, I would only be interested if it is also "Large Print". That's all I buy anymore.

My favorite is the 2011 ASE from the 2011 Anniversary Set. I have 2 of them in WDDO-001. I have confirmation from James Wiles. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...

Nice I'm with @Randy Abercrombie on this. I would like to know the story. My collecting started with my aunt giving me an 1885 nickel in 1948....
Amen. Then look at what we paid for them and what they are worth now. I'm glad I didn't expect a profit.
@Kevin Mader @Randy Abercrombie Am I seeing it correctly? It looks like 1882 to these old eyes. Is it a specimen?
Thanks Bruce. It is too bad that in order to maintain a "set" you have to buy 4 or 5 variations of a coin and its packaging. Happy New Year and...
Happy New Year to you, Randy. My wife and I were going down the list in the Red Book - Issue Price vs Current Value. If I find something I want it...
I have been a regular at the U S Mint since 1959. 2019 represents 60 years. I just terminated (de-activated) all my subscriptions. The mint is...
