bundy462 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 04/03/2011 01:42 am I'm not much into coin collecting and recently came across this strange penny. Is it anything more than someone with too much time on their hands? Thanks to anyone who can help! Report this Post to the Staff

Scooby Due Pillar of the Community United States 4000 Posts	Posted 04/03/2011 01:52 am Welcome! Your coin has been counterstamped with the Free Masons emblem. Some people do collect these and it might be worth a buck or two to the right individual. Technically, it is considered as damaged. Report this Post to the Staff
