I'm on a win streak, plus I ended my silver coin drought with a big one!

Lately I have been on somewhat of a win streak. By that I mean when I went to the military school that my family used to run to look for old pins with the school logo, I found a pin with the school logo. When I went to my civil war site that I researched to find a musket bullet, I found a musket bullet. And today, when I went to an old town in Alabama to look for a silver coin to break my drought, a silver coin appeared! I was really hoping for it to be an American half, but I'll take this Mexican 1932 Silver Peso.

It even has cool edge lettering that says "independencia y libertad"

I also got this neat Governor George Wallace Inaugural Medal

Nice Finds WTG

Correction...it's a "Libertad" cap. I agree completely, I am still waiting for a silver American half, but truly, this is the more interesting find. It is a beautiful coin, and I am a sucker for edge lettering. And who can argue with the ideals of liberty and independence? Not me.

Nothing wrong with an old Peso find. Nice one and the GW medallion is a collector, I would imagine.

I know!

I think tomorrow, I'm going to go out and look for a 1933 double eagle.
