Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 10/24/2016 7:25 pm I can only guess that the cent was once part of a good luck charm or piece of jewelry. Some other part must have broken off. It's just a guess. It's entirely possible that someone was messing with the coin trying to 'create' an error. But the indented edge makes me think it was in some sort of holder for awhile.

It may have been previously encapsulated as some sort of token for an event in 1956 or 1958, but the token was struck off center. Just a guess. Report this Post to the Staff
