1976 penny

Post by superiormooseman » Thu Mar 15, 2012 9:12 pm

Hello I'm new here, but have been following for a few years. I recently found a 1976 penny stamped with the maple leaves and quarter on top. Has anyone seen one of these?

It looks like 2 coins were glued together and the adhesive stayed on the penny. It's really hard to tell without it in hand but, from the photo, it looks like adhesive.

I agree with that. Found something similar a few years ago and it was glue.
