It counts as a find in my book too!
Instead of you going after it, it came after you.
Nice find! It kinda looks like the one I found.
Is it a 2 1/2 or 5 dollar?

Nice find. ;D ;D I would keep your eye open for more stuff like that when going through the stuff. My mom recently bought a purse at a garage sale and it had a sweet large cent in it. :)
