Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 09/26/2017 10:37 pm Hummm, current exchange rate for this coin is 5 cents, what else? Ponderance for the day: If the banks give you a full exchange for at least 50% of the remainder of a bill, do you think they would give you full credit for only half of a coin? I no longer give people a penny for their thoughts, ain't worth that much... And yes, this is what it was cut with, called Lineman's Snips...

Nevol Formerly nancyc Australia 5385 Posts	Posted 09/26/2017 10:43 pm Lots of little dings caused by being in circulation, no sign that I can see of extra stampings. Sorry but it's all PMD I'm afraid. life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved Report this Post to the Staff
Britton699 Valued Member United States 82 Posts	Posted 09/27/2017 12:53 am I see what looks like some numbers here and there like where it says five cents on the back just above where the gap is looks like some thing and underneath e pluribus unum it looks like some wording and the same on the front under in god we trust and liberty you can see letters. And the letter p looks like it might be double stamped. I'm not very good at this I look at coins with my 10x jewelers magnifying glass and I see stuff so I ask for info so I can learn. Thanks for the info. Report this Post to the Staff
Britton699 Valued Member United States 82 Posts	Posted 09/27/2017 01:04 am My pics are very good at showing what I'm seeing when I look at it with my magnifing glass. Cus there is a bunch of stuff that someone scribbled on it also but there are the stuff that I'm talking about on it. Its just kinda hard to see them in these pics. Just wanted to know if anyone could spot the stuff I'm talking about thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 09/27/2017 01:29 am I think it's most likely damage that may appear to form letters or something else discernible. jbuck recently reminded me of the concept: Pareidolia or, more broadly, apophenia.

Tootallious Rest in Peace United States 1559 Posts	Posted 09/27/2017 02:50 am Pareidolia is a good analogy. " Pareidolia is a type of apophenia, which is a more generalized term for seeing patterns in random data. Some common examples are seeing a likeness of Jesus in the clouds or an image of a man on the surface of the moon". For those that don't know what it means. Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 09/27/2017 03:13 am Quote: Pareidolia is a good analogy. Not really an analogy, just the truth. Another form of apophenia that is seen on CCF frequently is confirmation bias. That is not the case here, though, with the OP Britton. Some folks just see what they want to see and will not budge despite multiple opposing educated opinions and clear evidence to support them. It's pretty clear when it happens and it usually ends poorly.
