Titles are Important! * Somebody has this coin for sale locally and I would like to know if it's MS or AU details (due to rim damage) I would also Kline to know a value.

IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36828 Posts	Posted 03/02/2019 2:13 pm Can you show a photo of the edge sides. This one looks like it was pressed into and removed one of those "lucky penny holders" with these crushed rims. Report this Post to the Staff

The rims are huge! It may have been worked into a piece of jewelry judging by the rim damage. There is a slight chance it's a proof but the diagnostics are 100% required. Lincoln Cent Lover!

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/03/2019 09:16 am Probably not a proof and certainly not a VDB. Report this Post to the Staff
