Re: Let's see your best dug worn out coin!
This is an easy one for me....
1797 dime, 16 stars, JR-1 variety. Here is some information provided by my colonial coin "go to guy", Don in SJ......
"As usual for this variety, there is an extensive die break and extension upwards of the lower portion of the die, putting the 1797 and star one on a higher plane than the rest of the obverse. On worn specimens of JR-1, the date actually wears off first"
Another pretty cool one is this worn colonial copper that someone scribed on with names and the date 1758. I can see "John" on one side, but I'm not sure what's on the other......

Re: Let's see your best dug worn out coin!
HaHa,
I guess this doesn't qualify as worn,
Just one of many crusty coppers, I put off cracking this one open to save the disappointment for later
Diameter ID's it as a US Large Cent.
