Last night I thought that I heard someone in my garage. I went in the garage and looked around and did not see anyone. I opened the side door and looked outside and saw nothing. I came back into the garage and opened the garage door and walked down the drive. I saw nothing and came back inside the garage. Then I saw a man in my garage. I grabbed a 3 foot long medal rod and jabbed him in the stomach. He said " That is not hurting me" . I said " How about this". With that I took a hard swing with my right hand at his face. When my hand hit the headboard of our bed I woke up from my dream. My hand is very sore and I am typing this with my left fingers. The funny thing is that I am a lover and not a fighter. Post a coin that looks like it has been in a fight.

Miss Liberty was in a knife fight and lost.

In effect, yes. Cut U.S. federal silver coins like this have been found in archaeological digs at old U. S. Army forts that were in operation in the latter half of the 19th-century, especially in the western territories.

Hoard the keys.
Started out as a white gem, the rest is history. People think it's an old coin and that I'm devaluing it by carrying it in my pocket.
I then explain it's nothing more than a .999 silver round. Good conversation piece.
EDIT: Still weighs 31 grams, kinda hard to believe.

They ran out of space for that. Trust me, it's been badly cleaned. Got darker after it lost a battle with a torch. Notice they left off the barcode to add more damage.
That one has since crumbled away to crumb-sized fragments in its flip within my detector finds album.
Edited to add: thankfully, the two Barber dimes I dug nearby were not similarly affected. One, a 1916, was lovely, and AU-ish.

My undying respect, for keeping that thing around all these years. You know how much I love it.
<< <i>I love the story in the op. I bet many of us have had similar experiences. >>
Indeed. But it's been a while since I beat myself up.

I knew there was something missing. That is the worst (best) graded coin I have ever seen - a definite winner!
