eSinger Pillar of the Community United States 523 Posts	Posted 04/29/2013 8:29 pm I found this rather odd 1996P Kennedy. I have a few worn ones that I have kept but this one just doesn't seem like wear at all. The edges are a 'little' worn but not like they should be had this spent many hours passing through slot machines. The obverse and reverse center is worn at maybe VF-30, however the edges are G-2. Take a look and see what you think and let me know. I am going to keep it as I have seen nothing else like it before and it is unique at least to me. Its a 'P' mintmark....I forgot to snap that but at 10X it is obvious. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/01/2013 03:54 am I ruled out casino coins as the rims are strong on this example. Just the devices are affected. Report this Post to the Staff
