Please advise.
I almost threw it away thinking it was a trash parking lot coin and then I took a second look and I can see other print of letters. I'm still very knew and have so much to learn.
Thanks
Regina

Hey R, Picasso and Salvador Dali would be proud, but not so much as a collectable coin. PLC "parking lot coin". But keep looking.

You have to watch here, when you start seeing letters and shapes in coins like this then you know you're not really seeing shapes and letters from a mint error, but from all the damage and moved metal from all the trauma to the coin.
