J P M Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 (edited) I am visiting some friends, and they offered a jar of cents for me to rummage through on my down time. I will post some of the odd or older stuff here. Nothing to fancy Edited March 9 by J P M powermad5000 and Henri Charriere 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW, the two devices on either side of the date appear to closely resemble the cornucopia (Horn of Plenty) and torche (torch) two anti-counterfeiting measures adopted by the French Mint and used on coins minted on or about 1902, and apparently since. powermad5000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah,I’m not figuring on making it to 118, but I’m betting these ALREADY looked like this in 1955, when I was born. J P M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
