A 1941-P LWC counter stamped 600 AC. Possibly the stamp used to mark this LWC had the original purpose of marking items that were 600 Volts AC or had that as a maximum voltage. Today most house wiring has a max voltage rating of 600V I'm sure that was different in the 1940s when this was probably stamped...

@KopperKen If you included all duplicates and the many different Masonic stamped Lincoln Cents I would say I have several hundred. Maybe I will count sometime soon and give a more accurate number. Here is a picture I posted a couple of weeks ago showing all the albums (but not all the folders) that house my collection.

Posting this Victory Penny because of 2020. It's been a rough one for sure. 1941-P These are called Victory Pennies. At the end of WWII they were stamped and typically made into pins. Many times another coin would be domed to look like the helmets worn by the soldiers and hung below this coin. The V was typically painted red, white and blue. This example looks like it was polished, removing any of the possibly existing paint remnants. http://www.stewartsmilitaryantiques....archive.htm Here is a more complete, intact example:
