I see those all the time on ebay, usually Franklin halves. Someone's baking them in an oven and trying to get 5-10x market value...
Rest in Peace

So someone took a $5 coin, added a $30 holder and turned it into a $1 coin that will cost some sucker at least $17 to buy.

Is that how it works?

Who did they think they'd fool with that toning?

I have seen guys do this with a 1lb propane torch just playing around when I was at my old job.

I'm just puzzled why anyone would waste their time and money submitting this?
