    Description

    Please note:  I ship to USA only.  Depending on buyer's location eBay may collect state sales tax. The USPS continues to
    have difficulties so shipping may be slow.
    Listed here is an old piece of exonumia.
    I
    have no provenance for it other than it was part of an upstate New York coin collection compiled between, probably, 1945 and 2000.
    Based on
    the very
    limited features that can be
    observed on the coin it appears that this
    may be
    a badly disfigured 1857 flying eagle penny.
    The date can barely be discerned but I'm pretty sure it reads 1857.
    The extreme wear combined with corrosion gives the coin the appearance of being very ancient.
    The initials stamped in the coin classify it as
    exonumia
    .
    This coin may be of interest to a coin (probably not) or
    exonumia
    collector or to (or for) a person with the initials FHJ.  It's got a ton of character.
    Could be
    fun
    stocking stuffer for a person with those initials.
    Please ask any questions you might have prior to bidding.
    Thank you.
