Villa Rose Valued Member United States 68 Posts	Posted 07/01/2024 11:36 am Found this no-date oddity in a parking lot. Obviously, someone chopped it in half. How do you suppose that was done so cleanly? Report this Post to the Staff

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 07/01/2024 4:21 pm Sears right-hand cut (red handle) tin snip would work. I used to cut out the profile of Lincoln with a pair of tin snips when I got bored working as a sheet metal duct installer. That was back when I was about 17 and kind of umm... stupid. I got bored a lot back then, so there are quite a few sections of ductwork that have cut-outs of Lincoln's head rattling around in them. I'm pretty sure that the statute of limitations has run out on mutilating coins, right? *Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!* ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
