    A Blue [toned?] Cent in an unopened 1956 Proof Set.

    I'll post pics later. It's pretty puzzling.

    Nothing special, just a struck though grease nickel.

    I thought this was a fun find. From a 1985 mint set or so, I found this card about the size of a baseball card. I cropped off the peoples names, band name, and the pic which actually is the two of them in a regular pic.

  • I was also wondering, since I found this rather cool card, if, may be, just may be, being the small world that it is, perhaps this couple are members?
