VERY interesting story.

Imagine if they decide the coins are stolen government property and want to seize all the ones in existance? OUCH!

Excellent, excellent article......The very first one found was in 1947 in the cafateria of Pittsfield (Mass.) High school...... I know the person who found it (Don Lutes) as he was the president of my local coin club back when I was a teenager in the early 80's.....I have personally held that coin on 2 occasions and even as a teenager I knew what a cool thing I was holding.......I have heard from other people at my local coin shop that he still owns that coin......
