I don't know what to make of that.

Maybe a double heads coin, for cheating at the coin flip?

I see you are from Maine, did you find it near any New England Patriots football players?

PS: I think that is a sweet find, and counts as two LCs. Well done sir!

Congrats on the unique find. I am amazed that they used and 1847 and an 1848 LC to make this. Don't you think they should at least be the same year?

[Mzjavert]

I guess back in the day, they also cheated at games of chance.

 

[Tired Rooster]

That is so cool...very interesting.

 

[mk4125]

That is super bizarre...there must be some valid reason for why someone would create a double-sided coin (a popular coin trick back in that day possibly?).

[DirtTGuy]

Only difference is mine has that circle in the middle..Did you know right off you had a two header or did you have to clean it first?
