The people who make clad/modern coins gold and whoever is taking the pull tabs off of the cans and dropping them are my enemies! At least yours was worth something on the .99 cent menu!

Well. look at the bright side....it was much easier than digging 100 pennies, right! Nice find - Anytime you find a dollar coin is cool!

Isn't it better to have been excited for a second than not to have been excited at all.

Make them all Golden!
