Sap Moderator Australia 16854 Posts	Posted 02/08/2008 12:42 am Hong Kong didn't make any 1¢ coins in 1953. As for the grade, I'm thinking somewhere around gVF. Lower, if that patchiness on the reverse (particularly in the upper left quadrant) is the beginnings of corrosion, rather than just dirt or uneven tone. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
