To avoid confusion with the coin in this established three and a half year old thread, could you create a new thread for the coin you just posted this evening?
In your new thread can you post quality pictures of your coin out of the cardboard holder? Also add the weight if possible.
We truly want to help you but multiple coins in the same thread causes problems,
Thx!

Mules are coins with one die that doesn't pair correctly with opposite die. Only one 1959-D has been checked by the Secret Service. I've seen this 1959-D with the wheat reverse instead of the memorial. There's a lot of controversy over this coin that has been offered at auction. It has been verified by Secret Service, but PCGS with not certify the coin. A very well know counterfeiter has claimed that the coin is his creation done using a false die made by the spark erosion process.

Beyond all of the above, I find the the wheat ears a little too high for the lack of detail in them. The rim of the coin doesn't look right. The edge has been ground or sanded. The E PLURIBUS UNUM had been moved. Originally it was more to the right. Very pronounced in the "ghost UNUM of the full reverse photo but there is also the remnants of the BU in US and the the S in the 2nd dot. Manufactured fake in my opinion.

There's a very clear circle going around the rim of the obverse - I believe this is a Magician's coin. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

has to be a fake, and with the OP not supplying good images to prove his case then in my book it is done

weight 3.1 grams This is very exciting to have a specimen in the collection however compared to other specimens of the same similar design their is no doubling and don't weigh 3.1grams. This specimen like all others are for the fun of collecting cool stuff. No one cares about a sale price because it is a penny and as all people know a cent is 1 100th of one dollar value no matter the make and from a modern perspective possibly worth Three Cents due to copper weight. The intrinsic value to me is to say I have one!  |
