I found this coin in the Bahamas on Lignum Vitae Cay. It was found in an old house that had been plastered on the outside. When the plaster was still wet the owner had scratched the outline of several sailing ships into the plaster. Also found a CSA button that I later lost.

That's a pretty cool half to find anywhere, let alone the Bahamas. If only the coin could talk and tell us how it got there...

Yes Bernie. The house was full of old junk- bedsprings and such. I spent a day cleaning out the junk before I could detect!

Oh how I wish that coins could talk!
The stories that they would tell us.
