    Is this a common Error? I have only found the one in my group of coins. I have a ton of bie errors and blobs but none missing the trust...lol

    I'm not an error/variety collector, though I do have one or two in my collection. Best to ask that on the Errors board.

    I got my prize today, I just took a quick pic! ;) Very cool, it's the smallest coin in my collection! Thanks again Lord Marcovan! I really like your advertising on the back of the flip too!! I didn't include a pic of the back in case you don't want your information out in cyberspace. ~Cheers! :D IMG_6765.JPG

    I love it when folks enjoy their goodies enough to post a picture. Thanks.

    Which flip insert is on the back, the one with me in my hat, or the Clan Robertson badge one? I forget which I used on those.

    PS- compared to the microscopic gold coin @Craigescape is getting, your tiny (Sindh?) copper looks like a manhole cover or a truck wheel! :hilarious:

    Nice, I'm hoping mine comes in soon. I'm looking forward to start searching on what the history on it is. If it was used as a coin how did they keep from losing it? I have trouble keeping a hold of a normal penny...lol

    My "coin" made it today. THANK YOU. Other than it's super small it's a cool item that should provide some time to try to figure it out. If this was used as a form of currency, how did they keep from losing them all? And thanks for the bonis item the 1956 wheat penny. 20180512_165833.jpg

    Be sure to enter the current giveaway, if you haven't already (see the bottom link in my signature line.) One day the random number generator might smile upon you! :)

    They do seem impossibly tiny for currency, don't they? Must have been carried in little pouches, I guess. If you think about it, they'd at least be better than the gold dust that was sometimes used as currency during the California gold rush era. (Maybe not better than nuggets, but better than dust, anyway.)
