  1. I posted this in the “for the love of silver” thread. With all the conversations of what where how and why people have collections I thought I would share this.

    My dad got these from the gates mystery man in 1965 at a gas station he owned. The package is sealed and original. I thought many times since he gave them to me for safe keeping in 1999 that I should take them from the package, have them graded and packaged individually but always convinced myself they were much more valuable to me knowing the whole story behind them in the original package they were given to him in.

  2. It also stands out in the crowd because of its car wash token brass/bronze look. 

    Well you get what ya got when this is how you bought. But again they were purchased as curio for the grandchildren.

    I really wasn’t expecting F+ quality when I ordered. Just thought I’d share what you can find on the streets.

    thanks

    I will now be a newbie. I bought a few dozen large cents very recently (random dates) just to have around to share with the grandchildren and discuss their history. I dumped them out on the table and saw The coin I am posting here, and am in curiosity to responses to what the ???? Is this. All for fun and education.  thanks for any responses in advance.
