[QUOTE="born_raisedMaui, post: 3207544, member: 98533"][ATTACH=full]831899[/ATTACH] Hi, Thank you all so much for the ideas and research. Not snapping a photo of the back was a true rookie move (doh!) Here it is, along with box and the rest of the coins. The one sitting up top is one of the few I’ve added to the collection. (Not foreign, so apologies if site rules are strict on such matters) I was a food server for many years and received it after a customer asked if I’d seen one before — I believe the coins must have just come out, so it would have been 1999. I’ve always kept it wrapped up in that paper as I had a cursory knowledge about the edges needing to be unmarred (question: does that matter?) There are a few buffalo nickels in the box and these have always appealed to me so much, as do wheat penny. A question occurred to me after I posted last night. As coin aficionados and appreciators, is it considered a mortal sin to turn coins into rings? I’ve always fancied the look, and wondered if it is an egregious offense. (Not to get political or attempt to stir anything up ...) Mahalo much again.[/QUOTE]
