Fantastic. All new to me. I love the way you tell the story with super cliff-hangers.... I shall wait for the follow-on with great anticipation! Thank you!
"When I look at this picture, and I see the 8 tail feathers, I expect to hear The Count, from Sesame Street, saying something like, ' I see 8 feathers, AH, AH, AH!'" 😂
Thanks for the lesson. I do have some of these coins so now I will have to get them out and check them out. It might end up like a penny I have that, when I was younger, I could almost swear it was a 1943 copper. The 43 was in poor condition and you could barely distinguish the 3 but I thought I found my "white whale". I still have it, but I refuse to listen to naysayers even at 72 years old.

I’m going to work on that, today, søren
Fascinating. Never even gave it any thought but then I'm not coin collector. Appreciate your effort to share your knowledge, thanks!
It's cold here, gonna be a Three Dog Night.
Thank you, Susan!
These have such a different look compared to modern coins

You know what I mean, though?

If you are talking about the 1943 Lincoln penny, those were made of steel, they were the only coins ever to be made that way.
There were 40 of the copper pennies struck but only about 20 to 25 are said to exist.
Which penny and, and which year, do you know?
I like the old coins better.
