Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 07/07/2015 9:36 pm The severe rim bumps lead me to believe this coin may have once circulated in Mexico, where hurling such down onto a hard surface to test the ring was a common practice. Appears to me to be the O/S variety, which is the sole reason I plucked it out of the cull bin. Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff

Connor Pillar of the Community United States 2130 Posts	Posted 07/07/2015 10:21 pm There is no way I could let this one sit in the cull bin. I just bought an 82 o/s variety to add to my collection. Nice pick up Lucky Cuss. Report this Post to the Staff
