Purple tone

Not best of shape but cool tone to this 1970 penny! Sure its not worth much of anything but going to collection.

    Here are my purple contributions.

    I call this cent Smoke On the Water, in honor of the rock band Deep Purple (the Trueview photo shows a light purple color; in hand the cent is a deep, rich purple on both sides, except for the Lincoln Memorial which is a dark black).

    Here is a purple colored 2 cent piece.

    Here is one of my favorites, a purple 1964 Proof Cent.
