grospoisson Pillar of the Community United States 984 Posts	Posted 09/06/2022 8:21 pm Must have been part of a bracelet? It seems to look like they were broken at the rim. Anyone ever see these? Edited by grospoisson 09/06/2022 8:22 pm Report this Post to the Staff

halfamind Pillar of the Community United States 1484 Posts	Posted 09/06/2022 8:53 pm We see these Encased Coins on here fairly often. Looks like it was jewelry (necklace?) at some point. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/07/2022 04:17 am Looks to be in the bezel still. Not an Encased Coin per say. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/07/2022 11:59 am If the weight on the 1936 is 3.11grams, it maybe a dryer cent. (These will be smaller around on the diameter) Note how the devices are rolled over the motto devices? On the former Encased Cents the rims are flattened on these: If the weight is over 3.11 grams, then there maybe a Bezel on on the coin?

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/08/2022 11:09 am Looks like a plated normal business strike cent. The strike is the difference. The proof cent has a lot more detail on them: Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/08/2022 12:02 pm The 1952 has a bezel on the coin. You can see it on the image. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 94925 Posts	Posted 09/08/2022 9:22 pm yep, I agree, the bezel is intact on the coin, which if making the rim look a bit weird in the photos. Collecting since 1972.

Kbeez1988 New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 09/08/2022 10:50 pm Bezel? On a coin? I'm lost. I don't know what that means Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/09/2022 1:02 pm The coin was mounted onto a bezel to wear on a chain. So when they are removed from the chain, the bezel is on both coins. Addition to the coin. Not a plus for the coins. (the first two coins) [i]Best to have only one coin as it adds confusion to the thread. But when they are having the same issue. then they are understandable. The third coin is not necessary.
