KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 12/10/2007 10:31 pm Interesting...it looks like a badge from a proof set, but I've never seen one like that. It looks struck in bronze. Report this Post to the Staff

arthrene Pillar of the Community United States 1713 Posts	Posted 12/10/2007 11:15 pm Uncirculated mint sets include a token either "P" or "D" depending on the mint. This picture only shows the front of the tokens. The reverse is the same as yours with the scales. The eagle is different...never seen it before. Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 12/10/2007 11:42 pm It was a medallion included in the 1982 Proof Set. Apparently, the US Mint had a surplus of cases from 1980 and 1981 because the medallion is in the location that an SBA would be if they had minted them in 1982. Notice also that the 1979 Proof Set had the SBA in a slot the size of an Ike dollar so they must have had the same problem then too Report this Post to the Staff
