    I don't know. I guess something like this would qualify.

    Looks like a pocket piece carried by a cigar smoker who used it as a small cutting board when trimming his cigar with his pocketknife.

    My ugliest MS coin. I believe this was a nice looking toner that got exposed to bad storage conditions and turned bad looking in the slab. I bought it that way for a huge discount. I kind of like the toning still because it’s curious looking to me, but not too good eye appeal

    Damn!! It was a 69. That coin should have been washed after it was taken out of the slab! 🤣 😂 What a mess!

    Would those include the coins that can be returned to the Walmart parking lot on the way to returning the sweater than can only be worn after consuming a beverage that will help the gross domestic product of Poland?

    @HoledandCreative I'm curious why you hit the LOL button on my comment. Do you have a better theory as to why a large silver coin would have dozens of cut marks on both sides that were obviously made by a knife?
