I am looking for details about a Cu coin: On the front side, it has "17th President USA" "1865-1869" "ANDREW JOHNSON" On the back side, it has "SIR VETO", "was taught to read and write by his wife", "governor of Tennessee", "United States Senator", "Vice President became President upon death of Lincoln", "The Tailor President" Many thanks, Report this Post to the Staff

I don't think US has ever minted commemorative coins in copper unless I am very wrong. My partial coin collection http://www.omnicoin.com/collection/gxseries My numismatics articles and collection: http://www.gxseries.com/numis/numis_index.htm Regularly updated at least once a month.
