    This is the only coin, a cent, that I have seen like this. I’m sure there are more but it’s now part of my collection. I came into this coin a number of years ago but just recently open the box with over 125 coins in it and this was one of them.
    It’s dated 1966 so it’s a LMC. We tend to think of them as new but in reality this coin is now 66 years old and that’s not new. Modern yes, old-no. I’m older. LOL Just look at the reverse as that says it all. It made me laugh when I saw it. And that’s not anything that has been added to the coin.

    It was quite popular with Bait shops back in the day. I have a few half dollars around here somewhere. I will look.
    I have also seen them on Dollars. I don't remember seeing them on cents though.

    I can't seem to find the half I have. I believe that @dwhiz has shown a few thru the years.

    I have some sticker coins but none on cents. They're usually on larger coins...half and silver dollars mostly.
