    I picked this up for $15 plus shipping - I didn't have an 1807/6 overdate Draped Bust large cent, and now I do - so that's pretty simple in terms of my motivation, but this is an ugly duckling, I have to say. Mintage 829,221. This is a really obvious overdate too, it's like the mint guys were drunk / not paying attention / totally didn't care on these. Does anyone have any other fun shark attack coins?

    Cool, looks like the mint guys weren't the only ones who didn't care.

    Looks more like damage to me. Someone took a "nip" out of it, while scrapping lines into it. Too bad.

    I buy worn coins, but I really buy the best coin I can for the lowest cost I can.
