coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/01/2018 09:32 am Not sure what you want to know. The devices on your coin appears a bit altered. During the life time of your coin, they had gumball vending machines, that did damage coins. Most of the time the damage made a mark parallel to the edge of the coin. On the tops of the ST, you can see a little device alteration. There is a doubled die that is interesting that year. But your coin is not one of these. But if you ask a more specific question, I'll share what I know on the subject. Report this Post to the Staff
