Bizarre story. I was hunting around a 1930's house. While I was there, a young guy was walking down the road and asked me what I was looking for. I replied "old coins and whatever I can find" About 10 minutes later, he came back down the road with a friend and was holding a small container. He continued to tell me it was found in his attic (His house was across the street and about the same age as the one I was hunting) and that since he wasn't into coins, and that I was, that he thought I would appreciate it. Turns out the coin is about 1,700 years old. What a surprise! :headbang:
