Sorry .... that top pic of the obverse is a bit blurry. The actual picture isn't. Something got fuzzy in transmission.

That is actually a great idea. Years ago, I used to carry an old British Penny.

Thanks again everyone for your opinions and comments. You have been very helpful.

If you do make it a pocket piece, please follow up on the progress down the line.

Yeah as a pocket piece the pitting may be smoothed out somewhat and the color blended. Definitely post a pick this time next year.
