[QUOTE="youknowwho500, post: 148954, member: 6095"]I'm attaching pictures of a large medal that just barely fit into the dollar size 2x2s. I got it in a condition that looked like uncirculated, but because I was little and wasn't careful it has plenty of permanent fingerprints. The scans look bad, but that's because there was some dust on the printer. It flips like a medal, has no year, and just by holding it I know it can't be anything gold or silver. The front says American Revolution Bicentennial. (Oh now I know it can't be older than 1976) It has a little P mint mark underneath George Washington's bust, which is labeled. There is a strange star on the bottom rightof the front. The back says Sons of Liberty. There is a big tree with a flag sticking out of the top. Towards the bottom left there's a badge. The bottome layer reads - II Shillings VI Pence. The bottom right, there is a square with the "political cartoon" or the snake chopped in pieces labeled with the names of the states? Below the tree are the letters RJM. Oh yeah, and the coin looks like the color of a new penny, but closer to the yellow part of the spectrum.[/QUOTE]
