The Malibou Lake Collection-The Second Coming 的钱币相册
Made... Bought raw at a local coin show... This has been a very tough date to find in Pr01 as Copper Nickel cents tended to wear very well over the years.
Bought raw and certified.... This is one of my uglier Indian Cents!!
Bought Raw and certified... Apart from the Copper Oxide around the devices on the reverse, I would have thought this coin would have graded Pr01??
Certified from a raw coin... Bought from Jack Beymer. POP 1 SNOW #2 One of the stronger repunched dates in the series; even in a Pr01 grade the repunching is still very clear! This variety appears to be much rarer than thought? Only 19 coins certified by PCGS in Brown and RB and none in Red! Was the Obverse die retired early in its life with very few coins minted, or didn't anybody notice before the majority of the coins minted from this Obverse die became lost, damaged or otherwise removed from commerce?? I've added a 2nd picture with a closeup insert of the 8 in the date.

Bought Raw and certified... This coin beats the PCGS Photograde Pr01 example hands down... This coin is one of many of this date I've tried to certify with overall wear which should obtain a Pr01, yet still do not have a Pr01...
If I ever write a book on Low Ball coins, I think I'll use this as the dust cover photo!! A bit of Brick Red color here and there, with good honest wear which should have graded a Pr01 IMHO... Bought raw and certified.
Purchased out of the Stack's Bowers Sale with "Fivaz's World's Worst" which I believe was held in November 2020...
