I ventured out of my primary collecting focus of Southern Gold last night and was the highest bidder on two 1943 Steel Cents via Heritage. One 1943 and one 1943-D. Both MS67+ CAC.

Pic doesn't show the large silver-colored discoloration over the date and right field. But . . .old alphanumeric ANACS . . . . a fairly high grade for them at the time . . . sort of a fun piece . . .
Thanks to Mike Kittle (Illini420) for this years ago.

BuffIronTail has it correct . . . but I am going to play along with what I can.
I just like the hard / wholesome / workhorses of the Huck Finn era (among others). Slid a few times across a counter in a general store for some penny candy. Given as change for a shot of whisky. Handed back as change for a haircut.

Following David . . . just not as nice a pic.

I didn't know you was married
I posted these two the other day a 1916 cent and a blank cent planchet... both in change. Cheers, RickO

I like that DDO

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
Here's a nicely toned steely I picked up from my good friends Ray and Phil at Eye Appealing Coins.

It was a bit surreal (and somehow very inspiring) to wake up this morning to Jen Carfagno on The Weather Channel giving a shout out to National One Cent Day and then going on to describe both the obverse and reverse of a Fugio Cent, "the first U.S. one cent coin" in her words. I did double check to make sure I wasn't dreaming that one.

Thanks! I love the color on that coin.

That’s a near perfect example. Is it graded?

Note the prominence of the denomination on the “Wheaties” compared to the “Memorials.” This has led to at least three people excitedly telling me “I found a Penny that says ONE CENT on it!” Over the course of my numismatic career.
