The last two numerals on that penny are 08. Means it has to have been a 2008.
The D mint mark is there too. On a coin forum they think it's coated with shellac or something. I do not believe that to be the case. I still wonder how it was done.
I don't think I could come close to doing it.

You could check to see if that coating is conductive by using a VOM. Since it's black in color it might be a fairly high silver content solder. A dab of Tarnix (or however it's spelled) would lessen or remove the black coloration if that's the case.

Too cheap to buy a metal detector so you're CRH'ing instead?

[Just Plain Dave]

You've hit the nail directly on the head Black Lion. I have no way on earth to acquire a metal detector. Coin rolls are pretty much the only way I have to search.
I only need three modern coins. A 2009P with the proper reverse will fill the last hole in my Harris 1975 to 2013 folder. A better 2005D and 1999P get me from 2016 back to 1967 in flips. 66D, 65D, 54P 51P and 41D get me back to 1941.

On a different but similar subject. The 90s and 00s tone up more than other years.

This 2011 has reddish maroonish tint that looks great in person.

Agree totally on that view! I saw some pretty country in Arizona when I was OTR.
Never saw much of California except near LA.

Nice pictures, Greg.
I drove back and forth from East coast to Washington state 11 times. There's a lot of big country out there.

Fine photos fellers absolutely beautiful. QS I'm having a hard time staying ahead of the weeds.

I've been searching through penny rolls. Usually if anything other than US pennies it would be Canadian pennies. Was pleased to find this in a recent roll.

Carved Stump in Denmark (I spotted this on imgur with no other info so cannot credit the Photographer on pass on any other details)

jmh58: Is that weird stump in the first photo natural or did someone shape it?

Looks like a tree that fell over long ago, exposing the root ball. Rain and wind have removed the dirt and the roots have aged and been worn smooth.
