When cookies were money...or...is this a ginger snap?

Possibly a mint error where they skipped the creamy filling.

Cookie or coin ?

I think you get 2 and a tube of creme filling! I wish they enlarged the date area because I can't tell. But a Good, I don't think it comes even close to an G1.

I won't for a minute pretend that I know how to grade these, but I think he might be a bit optimistic in his assessment.

Looks like a " Cookie Monster ". Both pictures are of the same side. If you put your cursor over the picture it says " aaaaaaahhhhh ". Could be just as well to say it was a piece of clay.

I'd give at least the $168 just to have a chronology of where that coin has been and who had it during that time.

Makes me hungry just looking at it, please pass the ginger snaps.

I'm suprised the seller didn't call it MS63 with a weak strike.

Aw Russ, don't get coy with us.

It is OBVIOUSLY a Sheldon 13a (sub 2, var 1) and you KNOW it.

This is the coin that inspired Breen's, "Hey, kid, wanna cookie?"
