Interesting grease-fill. Just thought I'd share.

Looking closely it could be a 1957 P.

I think that is cool! It could be any 1950's coin you want it to be.

The last digit could be a 7 as I see a very very faint top part of the 7. In hand it might look completely different though. Anyway it's a great find and a keeper in my opinion.

I like it too. how does it make it through such a long time of circulation without being kept by someone?
Nice coin.

We do not know it circulated all these years. Someone could have kept it for ex number of years then spent it, and the next person kept if for ex number of years etc.

A Memorial on the back would make it a 1959.

Just noticed - there's something below United States of America on the rev. Have to look closer at that. Will post what I find.

Looks like the rev is multiple-clashed.

I think I see a "7" but for sure it is either a "5" or "7".
