My birthday was a couple weeks ago on the 7th. My mom surprised me with these really neat cakes she made from scratch, and so I thought I would show ya all. She hand-decorated the cakes to look like the obverse & reverse of a IHP. It's 1904 because they weren't minted in 2004 - the year I was born.

She sure did! Thanks, AirmetTango! With my birthday being a couple weeks ago, it has already been enjoyed, so I already ate a piece for you.

It was a solid penny signal, at about 3.28 feet deep. It blew my headphones off! JK

That's a great idea! After all, it is an Indian head penny, right? I'll post it there tomorrow.
