Nice Coin, 1960 cent, plus, maybe the art of a weak star note.

Notice the 6 of the date, looks like this > on one end as to inner lock. There's more.

Pocket change.
PS You may want to see the humor thread also. Ahh the sixties.

    The 6 is a die chip known as a broken post, quite common on 6, 0, P, D, B, O etc.

    Where are the traces of helium that hint at the weak star origins of that penny?

    I'm thinking nitrous oxide not helium.
