    Bare with me- I know NOTHING about coins. But I found this 1964 penny in my son's piggy bank. It's unlike any other penny I've ever seen. Anything special??

    The mintage of this era coin was very strong strikes, which tend to give them a high profile. Very unlike the new low profile cents most of us are used to seeing.
    Being a great condition really helps that pop out. Very nice for 53 years old.
    Condition is this only thing special that I can see.
