This one surprised me a bit. Put the dogs out, my mother yells down "what the...this one is really worn, almost looks blank". Got the dogs in, came up, and sure enough pulled the first blank planchet I've seen. Almost looked like a face, but think that was dirt left from others in the bag.

Happy hunting!
 

Those cents have really been around the block, beat up & aged, but still a good find., congrats on saving them from future neglect.
 

Nice find Rosco. What does your blank weigh? I recently found my first blanks about a month back and its of the 2.5 gram Zincoln variety.
