I think it is just bad corrosion 😕

I'm confident there are many local dealers who could help you out! I don't know enough about eBay or online auction houses.

It's worth keeping for its novelty. I have been collecting for two decades and don't have anything like that.

Definitely post-mint damage. I think this happens when a coin is stuck in a laundry dryer for dozens of cycles.

Tres bien!

Hi Geezer,

Where do you live?

Hi, welcome to Coinpeople! It's too hard for me to tell from the wear on the coin. I think it's more likely the the coin was struck by a very old, worn die which is why it is not as sharp as many other coins. 

Congratulations!! Thanks for sharing the story with us!

I'm very happy for you guys. I am sure you'll grace us with stories and findings once you receive it.

Those are some shiny tokens!

The second edition is finally being released?! How much did yu drop?

Because you already paid the money!

Very nice! I think Art's grandson deserves some of those great coins.

$140 for taking it to the dealer?! That sounds super cheap! Count your blessings, young man! 

I was going to say that's a cute bear but that's a goofy looking bear!

 Yowza!! That's a beaut!

How's it going now?

What a great error!

Welcome! What sort of info are you looking for?

Beautiful and lustrous. 

K mart tokens?!

I do the same, Art. For years, I never touched my credit card except for emergency purposes. Then my friends pointed out that I could be gaining points the whole time. Now, I view it as a guaranteed 2% off everything!

Very powerful color scheme!

What Art said!

Oooooh.... 

I googled it. I couldn't find any references to a legitimate copper trade dollar. Looks like it's probably a fake. I think this coin was faked a lot since it circulated so widely.
