After about a month of wear in the pocket, my 2014 Monuments Men bronze medal has lost its patina.

I was going to post my current state of the pocket 2016 recap but once again it seems Photobucket is jacked up again  Good thing I don't pay for their service as there is a sight dedicated to whether or not the site is working or not and a menage board for dissatisfied users.

Wow that Bugs Bunny is wearing fast.

Looking great Numisma and jack jeckel!  I'm surprised at how fast the rim at 11 o'clock on the reverse of the 1964 dime is wearing!

Quote: I'm surprised at how fast the rim at 11 o'clock on the reverse of the 1964 dime is wearing! Me too. My 1964 quarter reverse is also into the rim and for some odd reason the reverse of the Ellis Island is into the rim at one spot. Maybe it was the introduction of the small grinders in with the dollars which will be their death nail. I think if anyone wants a successful pocket piece DO NOT use a proof (unless it has a special meaning for you) The deeper rims and struck twice details make them wear longer and the mirrored fields look horrible with even the slightest wear. The only reason I have 2 proofs in my pocket is the Ellis Island was fingerprinted when I got it and I bet I am the only person on earth with a circulated 2015P RP Roosevelt

 with jbuck, I really like the circulated Ike! Looking at MontCollector's and jack jeckel's coins, I think my Monuments Men medal needs a friend besides my keys. @Numisma, do you carry another coin with your JFK half?
