Can`t recall the date but, I found a Proof Jeffy in a roll of nickels from the bank a year or so ago. I always hope to find War-Time nickels or high-grade `82-`83s, or `38-39s. Most all others get spent on coffee.
Mine was a 64 Proof Jeff. nickel. In circulation early 70's. Sent it to Ed Fleischmann at Coin World Clearinghouse for his designation as an "impaired proof". Still got it.

Couple years back picked up a 1999s deep cam. Georgia quarter at a local gas station. As the story goes a young man brought in a bunch for a couple gallons of gas. The clerk thought they were kinda funny looking and gave them all out in change to other customers. Only deep cam I own.

The name is LEE!
Whoops, nevermind. Just saw you live in Virginia. Interesting. I guess someone had no use for it and got their 5¢ out of it.
Wow, you must really be bored to post this! Might as well spend it tomorrow when you buy your next cup of coffee!
