<p>[QUOTE="pennyjoy, post: 1807446, member: 57767"]I have gone back and looked at this coin after all the helpful advise, and yes I would agree he probably spent some time under someone's tire, or may tires - parking lot scenario - plus I can't resist picking up pennies out of a parking lot, and maybe I am not the only one... I got him from a bulk lot off of Ebay - but I love looking at all of the damage and trying to imagine how it could have happened that way. It is still my favorite coin, so far <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> as I am trying to learn about error coins. I know he doesn't count as an error coin, but this boy has more errors than ... say... Frankenstein?</p><p> </p><p>Some day, when I get a system set up so I can take better pictures of my coins, I will repost him and you can see all of his mangled magnificence. I think I am getting the bug <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie12" alt="o_O" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
