Best Find Ever Searching Pennies...

[$ilver$urfer]

I just started opening my second box of pennies for the night and out pops an 1863 Wilson's Medal. From my research it is a Civil War Token and worth around $20. Not the most valuable find I've ever come across penny searching, but certainly the oldest and the coolest!

Picture and information is located below...mine is in as good of shape as this specimen!

A BU Teens Wheat, I have to go find it to get the exact year but book value was like $50 or $60 bucks.

I've found two Civil War tokens in rolls of cents over the years. It's funny, because when you first see it in your hand your mind is saying "what is this thing?" until it clicks that you've found a Civil War token. I never expected to find one, let alone two, and I had the same reaction to the second one.
