Small collection of coins from family novice collector

#1 Unread post by Cmb01009 »

Hi! I have a small collection of coins from my family. There is one coin that I have not been able to find anything about in my Internet searches and wondering if anyone can help me figure out it's value.. It is a 1986 United States penny that is enclosed on a card that reads "
"A SPECIAL "Liberty Head" penny
'THE LADY'
1886-1986
PRODUCT OF THOMAS SOS ENTERPRISES P.O. BOX 406 LARGO, FLA. 33540

The penny has Lincoln but also has a small liberty head next to Lincoln on the front. Any idea? I appreciate any help so much! I'm trying to scrape together enough money to renew my and my son's lease at a home we love, and have fallen behind due to health conditions. Thanks so much!

Welcome!

Normally, we need a picture to work with. Just take a photo and use the "Full Editor & Preview" button below to find a tab for Attachments.
From what you describe, this is most likely a novelty item and will not have much value. But, a quick look would really help.
