I have been to the top of Maui in September with my wife while on our honeymoon.
After waking up and sweating at the beach (high humidty and temperature at sea level) I suggested to my wife that i drive her to the top of Haleakala. She said ok. I suggested that she take something that would keep her warm. She scoffed at the notion but I insisted.
After getting to the top (over 10,000 feet high if I recall) and getting out to play tourist she was amazed at how cold it was. She was glad to have warm clothing. I enjoyed the alpine weather at the top and the great views.
I couldn't find a coin. When this was first posted I was at my son's home in Powers Lake, ND. Temp at that moment was a negative 41 degrees F. Winds were at about 15mph at the time and that pushed the wind chill well below -60. Just could not find a coin that cold or that date....would that be 41BC?

@Paradisefound ... I just spoke with Nickolas (very helpful) and sent in the restoration request. Apparently, they will only have them restored if they think it won't damage or decrease the coins appearance.
It looks lovely just the way it is ...... full of charm I'd say
