The cent is showing the rim being mushroomed . I like the term ( Dryer Coin ) anyway it just fits .

In the past some coin company's cleaned polished and plated coins for retail. Many people would buy these certified coins through magazines and TV advertisements never knowing that the coins are the same as almost any coin on the street just cleaned up with a fancy piece of paper. Everything on that paper is true to a point just not specifically pertaining to a individual coin .

I like many collectors use the Redbook for a reference among other sites like NGC and PCGS, Coin World and such . I am just a old construction worker, biker ,musician I am kinda gruff around the edges and don't always explain things very well and I make mistakes all the time . The problem is Mike, when we explain something about a coin we have to be carful on what we say. Especially for the new people. This site even though most of us are only collectors our comments are available world wide. If we say something out of context we better have something to back it up. That's all I wanted to say and here is the Redbook page on proofs and another PL. to keep things rolling.

Yes I have one of those it is a eye clash . On the obverse you may see a line going through the left eye. It is the edge of the step

Ever since @J P M posted I have been looking. I get some new rolls every once and awhile. I don't really collect moderns but maybe I will get into it if I can find some choice ones. Anyone come across the die clashed ones yet?
What Clash is that ?

Thanks for the other pictures, I am not sure it is a FS-502. I do not see the extra line on the top of the S. ??

It is sad that they had to buff some of the coins out for the display. I was able to get some nice ones but these two and two copper plated ones were just worthless.

Welcome,,,,,,,I would not send in these coins. The 1985 is toned in a odd way and it may get a ART Tone Label and the 1968 looks normal and I would need to see the reverse also to guess at it.

I live in a area of many retired people and I always find good looking old coins in pocket or from local bank rolls. When times are tough or someone passes on the change gets spent or banked.
