Mister Kairu Pillar of the Community United States 1911 Posts	Posted 06/21/2015 7:29 pm So my brother in law asked me about some coins he got from his grandmother and aside from some ikes, a Kennedy half, and a Peace dollar, he also had this. No clue what the punched little mark is for, sorry for the bad pictures I am pretty sure it is the beach sunlight since we on vacation. Any insight would be awesome! I am 99.99% sure it isn't rare or anything but pretty cool and I know some on the forum.collects these sort of coins.thanks all! Report this Post to the Staff

Elimist Pillar of the Community United States 632 Posts	Posted 06/21/2015 7:36 pm The picture of the obverse is too blurry and too far away to be sure but I think I see what looks like a masonic symbol? Report this Post to the Staff
