Are you sure that one isn't this DDO? http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/92495
Don't know don't care!
lol
The oldies were built better, built to last. Great find!
Cool find for sure!

That's the difference between ignorance and apathy.
Yes, it's hard to believe I'm that old. When I was high school I used to have little celebration each New Years Eve when one of the coins in my collection reached the century mark. Back in 1965, an 1865 Nickel Three Cent Piece seemed like an "old coin." Now a 1917 cent doesn't strike me as that old.
Of course when you when you can hold an English Penny of Harold II from 1066 or a denarus of Nero from 35AD, it makes all of the U.S. coins seem young.
I'm sure it was just a typo, but Nero wasn't born until AD 37.
I'm still waiting to find one of his coins in circulation.
Strange that some modern commems are well over 30. Wow that was quick.
I guess I should have said "of course it is that DDO....and I don't care if any of you coin people think otherwise. I have a dealer that says it is and will pay me BIG bucks for it!"

That is an old joke. What is the difference between ignorance and apathy. I don't know and I don't care.
Nice pluck. Ole Abe deserves a good home. Congrats!
Oopps! You are right. Make that circa 65 AD or something like that.
Love it.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
It is always interesting to find an old cent still in circulation....about a year or so ago, I found a 1919 cent in change... still have it someplace. Cheers, RickO
Nice find. The earliest cent I ever found in change was a 1922 Lincoln. I did find an 1882 Indian in the next door neighbor's front yard when I was in my early teens.

Great find @Hallco ! The notching at the top of the 7 is visible even in your blurry photo!
Kind regards,

I unhesitatingly declare it to be a circulated matte proof. I mean, look at how wide those rims are!

I thought you were about to say it's your birthday!
What a relief.
im not sure if thats a ddo or not.
Clearly a broadstrike, off center, DDO and struck on a wrong planchet.

I think this is about a one hundred dollar coin in the apparent grade from the picture.
