funny thing is while I agree it appears to be an asphalt find, I received it in change at a restaurant! Truly one of the most beat up coins I've ever received.

slab it and put it on the bay. Someone will buy it. Just remember to say your grandfather gave it to you as his dying wish.

Quote: My sincere congratulations. I doubt anyone can match you for a worse wild find. I found 75% of a Zincoln with poop stuck to it. I threw it away.  Quote: I am trying to imagine that the first number of the date is a 2! That's weird. I keep seeing a 3.

I call these coins street finds as they look like they have been in the street and run over for a long time. I get these quite a bit in change.

I wonder if any main TPG has ever received a coin like this.
