Kyd10 New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 09/07/2018 11:34 pm Hello everyone. Just joined this site. I pulled this out while counting my saved up pennies. Not sure what to make of this and curious to know the story behind it. A squared box in front of Lincoln's face with a monogram ND inside of it. Report this Post to the Staff

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 09/08/2018 02:32 am That is definitely a North Dakota state stamp. The tricky part is that the state shape has been rotated 90° CCW to fit in the coin's blank space.
