    addict ups the ante with an "AT" (artificially thrashed) coin. I still got faith in my pony. Its tough to beat almost 150 years of thrashings from mother nature. :yes:

    Don't say anything bad about that coin! It is the unique 1990 "with rays" cent!

    Hey, its a great coin that belongs in a slab. However, I think MS is out of the question.

    Yours is pretty beat up lonegunlawyer, but I do like the way the 48 is damaged. Would definitely keep.

    Hah, I just realized it's an S mint mark. Didn't know until I took a picture of it for this contest. I thought I couldn't see the mint mark on it.

    hey mine is NT (naturaly trashed) Not to mention it had to go through a time warp to get burried with the roman coins it came with... Can't beat a time warp, you just can't :D

    My back is against the wall and my mind is warped trying to come up with ideas on where or how to "cultivate" a winning coin.

    Might have enough detail to qualify for AG-2 maybe (er, is there such a grade?). Would need to see the reverse. I'll go AG-details: damaged?

    Matt, that is definitely a contender!
