Grab Box Find

Going through a grab box of copper coins yesterday, and I found a buffalo eating the wheat. :-) The coin is so oxidized I have to admit it looked like copper, nothing valuable, but a pleasant surprise.

    Is it a possible "2 Feather"? hard to tell from photo.

    It looks like a coin that was lost not long after being minted that has been buried for many, many years. It is probably best to just leave it as it is. Don't try to clean or "improve" it as the surfaces will have been corroded by this time.

    All glory is fleeting.
