The pics are not out of focus, this is what the coin looks like. Report this Post to the Staff

SheltieGuy1966 Valued Member United States 134 Posts	Posted 07/28/2015 8:57 pm I think I will hold on to this one since it is the first one I have seen like this (I have only searched around 10,000 cents). It may not have any value, but it is cool to me, kinda makes me dizzy when I look at it through the loupe, and that is fun! Thanks for i.d.ing it, I have learned so much in my short time here, a great community to be a part of. Report this Post to the Staff
