Bambooski Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 I found an interesting penny; it's just like a regular penny, but on the right hand side, a face that looks like Kennedy is facing Lincoln. It looks like it was stamped on; there isn't really much detail. Does anyone know about this? Thanks, Bambooski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drusus Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 Its a Lincoln / Kennedy Penny It is a private company in the 70's?...I don't know which or if there was more than one...that took pennies and stamped Kennedy on them, and distributed them with a card that told of the similarities between the two presidents. There are many example online and some for sale on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bambooski Posted April 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 Interesting! Is that legal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Yes, it is legal. It is illegal to deface a coin with the intent to defraud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
