Not my coin, as I don’t have a photo of mine, but my label/grade is identical.

I found a California state quarter (with Half Dome and John Muir) on the ground at El Cap Meadow once -
does that count?
I've stayed at the Ahwanhee and fly fished the Merced, does that count? A great place to find your third eye. Peace Roy

That is an outstanding medal, TomB. What do they sell for?

In honor of the memory of Cpl. Michael E. Thompson
I too have had the pleasure of a visit.
Far out !
If my memory is correct...lol.
At the base of one of the falls, standing in awe, here is a copperhead snake coming our way.
Does that count as a coin ?
