Re: Anybody know what this is? Pretty cool "graffitti". Maybe it had something to do with the campaign to put Teddy on Mt. Rushmore. ~Prag

Re: Anybody know what this is? I have only found one other person looking for info on these coins. I was told the original coin was a "barber" half dollor? I do not know. One story I was told is that it has something to do with the Panama canal. Thanks for your feed back.
