    Now it's uncirculated. 🤣 Sorry, one of my favorites. As you can tell. 😉

    If you find a coin "in" circulation, does that mean the coin "is" circulated? It's a trick question. 🤣 😉

    Truly the beauty of numismatics. We can spend five figures on a coin yet many times we love these kid collector coins we still have even more. I vividly remember getting that 15 D in change buying a cream donut at Deys Bakery! Been in my ol Whitman ever since.

    Yes mine was a toy store yo-yo purchase. The kids at my school were all about the Duncan butterfly and I had to have one. It was $2.42 and I got back all wheat cents for pennies. I asked if I could look at the rest and he dumped out the tray contents on the counter. Lots of 20’s stuff. I remember specifically seeing the 15-D and thinking “wow, that’s an old one”. He sold me all of them for face value. I already knew where the coin shops were because I rode my bike everywhere back in Orlando those days. There were actually a few. I may have actually rode out that day to buy my first Whitman album.

    one of my favoritest pennies...walnut toning on this lightly circulated beauty. I got this one out of it's holder not only to photograph it but to remove the dirt seen on the obverse's periphery.
