I was going thru my change as I always do and there it was! It's only an AU shape, but still a cool find.

just thought I'd share.

Here are a couple of bad pictures taken with my iPhone. If anyone has suggestions on how to improve the quality, please let me know.

Thanks!

Been looking thru my change for years and no luck. Your find is great, and gives me hope that some day....

That last time I had a nice find (e.g. something other than a 90% coin) in circulation was in 1995 during the hub bub for the DDO of that year. I got one in change from Burger King at the time. I still own that coin now and is resides in an ANACS MS64RD holder.

Lovely little discovery there, Rampage. Well done.

And that coin looks for like MS62-63, IMO.

Fantastic find! It goes to show you there are still good stuff to find in circulation.

GrumpyEd · December 28, 2014 12:39PM

I think it would grade better than you expect!
