Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 12/23/2016 5:21 pm I knew it! The interesting point that the article omitted to mention is that the reason this supposedly "did not exist" was that Denver supposedly decided to only use the small date die on zinc cents, and took extra care (read: stopped production for a couple weeks) to clear the hopper of copper planchets. If this wasn't found in circulation, I would suspect an inside job. Really curious to know how much this one is going to sell for. I'm guessing $20k minimum. Report this Post to the Staff
