A recent purchase for $15 that seems like a good deal even with the low grade. With all the circulation wear it still weighs 3.00g which may be the result of the slightly heavier alloy mix.

Amazing that it circulated that much before being set aside.
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art

The bifacial lack of strong rims suggests a weak strike rather than circulation wear.

Thanks for all the comments! The photos on the listing were of the coin in a capsule and it was sort of gamble since it looked like it could have been bezel damage. Quote: The bifacial lack of strong rims suggests a weak strike rather than circulation wear. I was thinking a thin planchet from the photos but the weight eliminated that idea. Here is a photo of a similar looking graded coin.

I just saw this thread. Fantastic coin! The Denver Mint didn't have a stellar decade in the 1920s, but it sure made us collectors happy.

Quote:The Denver Mint didn't have a stellar decade in the 1920s, but it sure made us collectors happy. Does that include 1922?
