A very weird elongated cent.

I was at Schimpff's confectionery in Jeffersonville, Indiana - about 35 miles from me. Personally I don't go for the candy but the place does seem quite cool. Most times I get some 'souvenir cents' but today was....
.....different.

Not sure if you see it but it's a 2021 with the ends of a Schimpff's design and 'ES' in a "City of Jeffersonville" cent. I knew something was up when the cycle was shorter; this coin is a cross between the 2 below.


It's probably not worth much extra, but the sheer weirdness is crazy. That might be a keeper. Better than the wheat cent I was thinking of elongating, but then again something like this would only happen on a coin worth one cent otherwise.

Whew, that took a little bit to type. Imma head out now.

What's a Redhot?

 

A Redhot is one of their most famous hard candies. They had an entire table full of them today. I'm unsure what flavor it is (edit: now I do)

Just looked it up and it's cinnamon flavored. Google also said they produce about 20,000 pounds a year of them.

 

I love redhots!
