PleaseHelpThanks New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 09/12/2020 11:59 am Hi all, first post here. I found this 1984 penny stamped with the image of what appears to be a wrapped gift box. I've searched the net but cannot seem to figure out where the gift box image comes from or what it means. Could someone please help me? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff
