scorcho320 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 10/20/2006 12:02 am When I opened up a new roll of pennies I found one that was different. It has a large D with the words Uncirculated Denver on one side and the other side has a shield and the words Treasury, United States Mint. I searched everywhere on the internet for any info on it. thats why I came here. I am not interested in the price e of it, I just want to know what the heck it is and why I cant find anything about it. Anyone have any information? id love to hear about it. I have also collected some old coins but nothing special . A silver dime from 1961. A steel penny from 1943 and a dime from 1935 with the head of mercury. Again, thanks for everything.

Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 10/20/2006 12:32 am Hello and welcome to our CC family! What you have found is not a penny or even a coin. It is a medallion from the Denver Mint that is included with Denver souvenir sets. Unfortunately, I don't believe this medallion has much numismatic value. Keep looking, though! You never know what you'll find! Report this Post to the Staff
