    HI, been a while.. money was tight so I opted to ignore this hobby for a few months...lol

    Any-hoo.. can anyone identify this coin... and possibly even put a possible value on it?
    TIA.

    Dang.. ? I was hoping for a steal... it would have been my oldest coin.
    What is the telling factor?

    Next time...
    Thx.
