Re: One of my favorite "hard to find" coins

Nice Find bk, I found one of those when I was a teen under the back seat of a 1953 Ford
convertible of a friend.
One day when I was hitch hiking into town at a local crossroads two miles from where
I lived at that time, while waiting for cars to come, I started tossing it up in the air and catching it.
As you might have guessed, yes I lost it right side of the road never to be seen by me again.
I'm sure by now road equiptment cleaning out ditches over the years have most likely moved it for miles down the road. I would have to drive over 150 miles to get to the place today, and probably
would never find it.
