Congrats kieth12. We knew we had a winner, just not who it would be.

joe, that coin looked like it had a date of 1977, had to look it up again. One odd coin for sure. Thanks for the round.

Some one fill me in on the " Red Book". Is it just US coins? I believe so, but don't posses one. James will like it.

Edit, I dropped my question waiting for an answer for joe.

Glad I waited, an answer for my question would have only gained us 5 years.

Was the coin struck before Washington DC was the capital?

God eye on that date loonie. As you found out, the 7 looking symbol is actually a 6 in Eastern Arabic numerals.

You got me on the loin/lion the other day, got you here on god/good. You know we look old to these other players. .

Found this, if it stands, we have the date cornered.

What were the first US coins?
One cent coins and Half Cents were the first coins struck for circulation by the United States mint in 1793


I found lots of stuff before 1793 though. I'll burn one more question today, then sit back and watch.

Was the coin minted by the US Mint for circulation?
