Hello- Do you have any pictures ? That always helps. Are the letters revesed ? And are the images of the cent imperssion raised or are they indented ?
A bit more info & I'm sure someone will be able to help you.

 

Thanks, The letters are NOT reversed and they are raised. I'll work on the pictures.

Hey budgood

Yea Thanks, Thats what it looks like. We looked into it a little more and found that it is a double denomination not sure if its a double date you can only see one and its 1984 on the other you can only see 19??. Its in excelent shape its been in a case sense we found it in a bank roll of coins in 1985. We were thinking of having it authincated through NCG or someone like that. What do you think?

 

Here's some pictures of redeemed's coin ! Wow-

 

The ways the photos look it is on a cent planchets...or in other words...its on a cents medal...if that is right it would be fake....I don't know how it was done but a cent planchet could fit in a dime collar or the feeder that feeds the planchets into the dies----the only way it could happen IMHO is that it was sturck out side the collar...and that isn't likely.
