Well I don't think we have done Mintages before. So that's were I'm going. This will be a voting roundPost your Lowest Mintage coin Must be Legal or have been Legal TenderKnown Mintage preferred (but I guess estimates will work) Post coins until 2 P.M. Forum time Saturday (guess we could go longer. Lets see what happens) Then vote Till 2 P.M. Sunday (guess we could go longer) Vote for the coin you like best. That should be All Inclusive   1995 Bermurda One Cent (silver) Mintage 2000 Edited by Keith67

Here is my Wood's Rosa Americana penny dated 1722 AD, which I bought from someone here on CCF. The attribution is W-1272, Martin 3-D, and Breen 119, which makes it rarity URS-4 (between 5 and 8 pieces known). Sorry for the substandard pics, but I really struggle with photographing coins in plastic coffins.   "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

While we wait, I finally got a chance to look at stuff for the previous challenge and found this token that is the same on both sides, so I think it would have been 4 points.   In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Nice coin Spence. I think I would get it re-slabbed
May I ask what the grade is?

I thought for sure there would be more participating from everyone. Lets wrap this dumb idea up

Thx for the comments @pt and @k12. PCGS straight graded it at XF-40 and while the slabs is somewhat scratched, I'm not a huge fan of slabbing. I agree for some coins it is very important as the fakes have gotten so good, but otherwise I'm struggling to see the ROI.
