My first gold coin... Does it count

[lucky1777]

I found this gold plated Ike at a house I was hunting last fall. I think some kid got into dads coin collection.

Yes it counts. One possibility is that someone carred it for a good luck token. People do strange things. Good luck.

Gold is gold. But I would trade an Ike for a Double Eagle any time. Burdie

Sure looks like a gold coin to me, Lucky. I'm trying real hard to see what the other coins are in the picture. You should post those too.
