coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 05/19/2012 09:26 am This looks like it could be a test minting of a token of some sort over a cent. The impression was too deep to affect anything other than the higher points of the coin. Of course since this is a token over cent and not a cent over token, it was definitely created this way outside the mint and thus does not have any specific numismatic value...but the idea that it's a vise job is not working with me.

daniels Pillar of the Community United States 1620 Posts	Posted 05/19/2012 6:05 pm I was looking at the obverse and a vice would not have made those slice marks on it like that it would have pushed in the coin. Any clue coppercoins on what I should do with the coin keep it or send it to CSI lol Report this Post to the Staff
