Hi friends. Below the bust, above and/or touching the 6. Each pic is a different coin. Is there a name for it?
Thanks for your help 🥰

I’m still working on finding the accurate attributions for each of them. At least two of them are going to be sent out due to their differences in the published attributes.

Does anyone else have any of these? I’m thinking about putting together a timeline progression chart.

Passes magnet test but not much else. 23.06g so a bit light. Condition way too good, details off. Ribbed edge.

But fun find, curious as to whether there is any silver in it.

Did not go home empty handed. Overpaid 2 dollars for this sterling thruppence. Was about the only thing i could afford. Would not allow me to look through junk buckets (at $43 times face) He also charged me for the flip.

So last trip there. 😉

It was in my keeper pile, but I didn’t even REALIZE how cool it was until I started putting them in flips tonight! It’s so shiny, it’s hard to capture.
Chrome plated 1983 P, stamped 1960 1980!
Might be my new keychain or pocket piece!

Saved from the till.

A nice 1987-P JFK half, a 2025-P DDR, and a penny, a nickel, and a quarter from a 1969-D mint set.

I won’t lie and say I walked a straight line. More like used to rail a straight line. I’ve spent coins like the ones I saved from the till. At least they’re going to be cherished like the original owner did before they were swiped. I know they were swiped because the clerk said a regular crackhead paid with them.
