    I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines.  I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.

    Why I am just proud of BB, good ID Will. Here is the photo so others can see what really is on the coin, I put it into negative and played with the settings to make the letters show up better.

    Good find, maybe it is one from the 1650's.

    "The mantra has always been don't clean a (copper) coin or it will lose value.
    For undug coins this is true.  For dug coins this is untrue.
    The value will increase with judicious cleaning."
