Hello everyone,

Yesterday I was going through a pile of change I have accumulated over my last several hunts. I divide them up and put each denomination in different containers. While pick out all my badly encrusted cents and placing them in their container, I noticed a perfectly encrusted coin I had previously put in the container. I thought that it was interesting because of the perfect black/dark grey encrustation.

Low and behold, I cracked it open and saw it was a dime. After cleaning it up, saw it was silver. Nice surprise to find in the crusted cent container.

Guess you never know what you'll find on a caribbean beach here in St. Thomas.
