<p>[QUOTE="Randy Abercrombie, post: 3199629, member: 92655"]What you have there is a "spooned" cent. Unfortunately I know them all too well. As a lad long before the days of constant internet gadgets to fill our young minds, we created our own distractions and spooning coins was one of them. You can sit for hours rapping the edge of a coin with a spoon and it draws up the edge. Do it long enough and drill out the center and you have yourself a ring...... Sorry, not an error.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
