ELIZABETHTON, Tenn. (KABC) -- A couple of street sweepers made a rare find in Tennessee when they picked up a coin.

The two men said they often pick up coins that have been tossed on the ground, but the one they found on Wednesday was different than the rest.

"I hollered, 'Albert look here what I found!' And we looked at it, it's a 1736 silver coin," said Jonathan Bowman.
