This is s 2005 bullion ASE. I use it as a nice little tray to hold computer screws and other little parts. It got caught between an anvil and a hammer a few hundred times.

I drill holes in Zincolns to use them as washers. You can't buy a washer at Lowes for a penny!

When I was a teenager my one of my brothers and I would put them on the railroad track to see how flat they could get. Seems there wasn't much difference in thickness of the cents, nickels and dimes. Didn't do quarters, too many candy bars could be bought with one of those at five cents apiece.

It did tone very nicely after the surgery...didn't help with scar formation though

I don't really remember the grade but obviously I didn't agree with it....kind of a "duh" experience but it was quite a while ago (my excuse)

Here is the reverse and you can actually see the indents from the saw teeth in the eagle's belly
