Pocket change find, Alamagordo, New Mexico--- Double rim on the reverse, distorted letters etc- I thought the mint mark was doubled but as I looked closer.. Thanks for your help, spend it or save it?
It's been struck with a die that was well past it's prime and then circulation happened. It's a spender. Find another 99 and you'll be able to enjoy a nice cold can of Coke.
Although the coin is in bad shape, it does appear to have been struck through a little bit of "grease".
thanks Mike. It went to the coin star jar..maybe some other pocket change searcher stumbles across it and learns as I did...
Oh what do you know? The die is "past it" and some of those letters were clogged with a little grease. That's my dx, too.
