How circ and how damaged? It's only worth about 1500.
But cool as heck to play heads and tails with or just fumble with.....

I found it in my Grandfather's dresser drawer after his passing. It is the coin that got me started in collecting. Geez, the things I could have bought over the years if I had never found it.

I can't reveal which coins are in my pocket ........they may someday make it into a PCGS slab when they get worn enough!
If I had it my way, stupidity would be painful!
Either one in MS-65, which, I guess they must have started out as, at least on the fall from the minting machine into the bucket, would be big bucks. But, now, they just ride with my keys, my little tiny flashlight, and a bunch of clad, no personality coins in my right pocket. It does get a pretty big rise out of the TSA guys at the airports I frequent tho. Most of them are either too young to have ever seen one or else they think that these worn-out specimens must be rare and valuable. At least they haven't confiscated it like they did my pocket Leatherman at LAX! (It also helps me find the numismatists in line, so there is somebody to talk to on the plane).

Hey "M" what do you think of This
It's a side-side double barrel black powder handgun manufactured around 1836 and possibly taken west during the 1849 California gold rush.

I've carried it every day since.
Perhaps the price is just too steep.

I am looking for a reasonably priced 1955(my birthyear) Frankie to replace it.

I carry a Sac and a Jack. Oddly enough, the Sac looks decent. It toned the typical turd brown some time ago, but the Jack wears the raised parts so that they stay brassy. All-in-all, not a bad looking coin.
I try to rotate pocket pieces frequently. I always ask for Ike, SBA, or Sac dollars when I go to the bank, but these never stay in my pocket for more than a pay period, since homeless people are so pleasantly freaked out to receive one in circulation. (I have also been known to spend an SBA or two as a tip for an incompetent waiter/waitress.)
The longer term tenants of my pocket are dateless Buffalo nickels and AG Barber Dimes. I can no longer leave these on my desk, since my 20-month-old grandson has learned how to toss them inside my laser printer's duplexer. They are safe in my pocket until I meet a deserving cashier for a purchase of $x.05 or $x.10. Spending these pocket pieces usually results in better service the next time I see that person.
The only pocket piece which has been a constant for me for the last 5 years is my 10X Anco triplet loupe.

Sorry to hear that. Did you check to see if surgery could help?
