What is neat though the reverse shows details that I've never noticed before that being a BU coin you might not have noticed before. The braille. Never noticed that before on the coin's design. Something blackened it and circulation has antiqued the coin from wear. Sometimes it helps to carry darkened coins in your change to lighten them up some. Report this Post to the Staff
