Sorry if the pics are toooo large:yahoo:
Congratulations.
And is that a small peel on the right as well?
well done Matt :yahoo:
I was excited like that with my first dot above the top scroll 1920 penny
Can't comment as I am no egg-spert but I am sure they will be in to make comment
Thanks guys. Yep Fulvio I think it is, I'm wondering if that would lower the value or not?
I bet you were RobbieGal haha, I'm still excited..
Wow! Well done Mattgold!!!!!
Did you noodle it, or just find in change?
lookin good MG :good:
noodle noodle, Found it in $100 of 20's along with a few other keepers and also 4 2011 10 cent pieces in $90 of 10's
That' looks the real deal. Congratulations.

Um, the jury is still out....wait....there back.....nervously awaiting a................Positive ID.
Nice find as I am still to noodle one.
Now, when you find the next one, can I have it please.....please!

In my opinion it adds value. Depends on the buyer though.
I will have to think about that one Goldseeker haha
And true Fulvio, it always depends on the buyer at the time..
Would anyone know the rough mintage of these? The topic has more than likely been spoken about before but lets refresh some memories.:wavemulticolor::wavemulticolor:
Nice find! I'm still yet to find one too.
that's a nice find matt I haven't found one ever
I don't think anyone has any mintage figures, but it wouldn't be many, given how it happened. Same ballpark as mules I reckon.
Well done Matt great find
I've yet to find one
Bought one awhile back
Very cool. (But I can't view pics, new phone and shaped internet is a drag)
Congrats Mattgold, your persistence has paid off big time.!! :yahoo:
Congrats Mattgold...certainly provides me with some comfort given my 20c noodling efforts remain mostly fruitless.
Did you manage to share the news with anyone you know or would they just look at you blankly?

I was telling my parents and they did just stare blankly at what was so special about the coin but my partner on the other hand was over the moon for me as I have had a shocka of a week and this find made it all worth while.
Thanks everyone for the praises and I hope that you all find one soon!!!
There is one on ebay at the moment with a couple of hours left, it's not real although it has got bids up to $80 so far. I'm hoping it's not a couple of collector friends of mine who I told about my find because they are fairly new collectors like myself.
