Arthound New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 07/14/2025 8:26 pm Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask. New member, and fairly new at collecting. This was in a giant cup of pennies I finally found time for. Any ideas on what I have here? * Edited by Staff to clarify the topic title.

It's just a damaged coin, not an error. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
