I had to sit down after this one!

Look what I pulled out of a roll today. When I first saw it, I was like "my first foreign coin" because I knew it wasnt a kennedy, ben, or walker. Then I realized what it was. I couldn't believe it, and it's in such good shape. I've never found anything older than a Ben. Anyone else ever found anything like this? This came from a very small town with only one bank. They had $70 in halves and I got this coin plus a 64 and a couple 40s. I almost missed them to because I got there at 1PM and I guess they close for lunch at 1PM because they were locking the door when I got there. I got really lucky. I went to another bank in another small town today and they had $1020 in halves. I couldn't buy them all so I got $200. It only produced 2 40s. I guess I need to get the others now that I know that there is some silver in it.

[Hi Ho Silver!]

I've seen them before but never found one CHRing yet. Good find. It's worth a bit too!

Holy cow! Unless you find a gold coin in a roll, a seated probably has to be in the running for the best you're ever gonna find in this hobby!

I'm still looking for the gold coin myself. HH Mark
