ikaros Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Ugly Coin Competition 2014 Ugly By Design I'm Not Bad, I'm Just Engraved That Way 1970 and Before ScottO's 1638 Sweden 1/4 ore Not the worst design in the world, I do like the crudeness of it, the issue here is that the coin was made by the casting technique, and has had a lot of extra metal on the design from where the metal has ran. vs ScottO's 1855 Prince Edward Island 1 Cent The entire design is lettering and the date, the only other thing is a small marking at the bottom on one side. And given the time frame, a rather boring coin given the designs of many countries around this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
