Hey.. Whatever happened to that 1983 Copper Cent you said you found?

 

There is nothing out of the ordinary about your cent. It looks nice but not worth the grading fees.

 

spend it, or save it if you need the date

 

Might be MD on the reverse. I'm improving -I knew it was 93 before I saw the date.

 

You're seeing things.

 

Meant machine doubling. See around the "O" in One.

 

I didn't mean you, sorry. I meant the OP, he's imagining things.

 

He's waiting for it to come back from the grading service he sent it to for authentication. I think its in Shanghai or someplace like that.

Wait. His coin has been Shanghai'd?

 

You've just 'coined' a new term for Chinese fakes

 

Bottleneck John uses it as a pick for his steel guitar

 

I see what you mean about the beard - I think that was the day the batteries in his Remmington (tm) beard trimmer expired.
