63kmartin New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 05/23/2013 7:54 pm I have been holding on to something odd. I have tried looking it up on Google with no success. Can anyone tell me what I have and estimate some type of value? This is a 1917 Lincoln Wheat penny that has been connected to a Buffalo nickel. The nickel's obverse is visible as the penny is fused (inset into) to the front. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Either way, it's a deliberate creation and nothing the Mint could have done. Report this Post to the Staff
