Oh yes, I recall them. Little slugs of copper or copper plated zince with designs impressed upon them.
As I recall you soaked me a bit more then 1 cent for the one you sent me. I think it was a 1955 D/D MS65 Red. You know I have not been able to put that coin into my Cent Album. That silly rectangle holder you sent it in just will not fit into that little round hole andf I have not found the catch to open the holder. Any suggestions? Mopar PS I found the photos Art posted to be very interesting. --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], "Jan Schwenk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Mopar, > > > > Glad you asked.
