    I am curious to see hos this series goes, when I saw the first five above I only knew three of the women and had to look up the other two.   I would bet that many to most of the younger generations will have no idea of who any of those women are.   So I have to wonder, will this be a success and get people to at least do a google search when each design is released.   Or will most just say who the heck is this and go on with their day.

    I assume most will do what they do now - pay no attention to the designs or who is on it.

    Got taken advantage of

    You paid $10 for a fake.  Hopefully you will learn something from all the different pieces here - your knowledge level, silver content of a coin and spot price, what exactly the coin is (rarity) and most importantly - buying stuff from a rando in a casino.  From all angles $10 is a more than fair price for all the learning you can take from this experience.

    Some things are just not for sale unless I do ever get a ridiculous amount of money. That coin when sitting in a presentation box is disturbingly magical. Say you have it in your office and every time you look 

    at it its never the same. Its overwhelmingly powerful. Holographic, Color Changing, Color Shifting Insanity. 

    Your office may have 10,000 distractions but when someone enters the office that coin is the only thing they see, A veritable beacon drawing you in. I get bored looking at coins but this one I have to cover most

    of the time on its side so no one sees it because that's all they see. Everyone in the room turns Invisible. It's such a distraction I lose eye contact with visitors to my office.

    Smaller in diameter than a Dollar, Smaller than a Half Dollar, 100X more powerful.

    The second you move your head, then coin changes again. 20X More powerful than the PCGS Hologram...... Hence the I will never sell it price unless your Rockefeller 

      You really are a salesman. You don't appear to know much about coins, but I'll give you the fancy descriptive sales pitch.  

    Coin/currency collecting software

    I have looked at several apps to use for inventory.  However, I always came back to excel and now use Google sheets instead.    Allows me to track my inventory, report, create my own "set" criteria, etc... 100% what I need at any given time.  Not what someone else thinks is the best way to track inventory.

    They can have a list of coins/currency in that category so you can see what you are missing.

    With all the info available online you could load a series info easily into a spreadsheet.  I would hope this is not the main reason for your looking at a software app to use.    

    1964 penny. No mint mark

    But it is still a 1964 penny lacking mint mark.

    A philly cent.  Nothing special.    Someone was simply playing around with nail polish. Your picture is fine.  You know the old saying.  You can put makeup on a pig, but it is still a pig.   That applies here.  This is just a common cent.
