That steel cent may be the grossest coin I've ever found, but I kept it anyway.
If that is not the sign of a dedicated coin addict, I do not know what is!

WELCOME TO THE FORUM.
The finding of all types of old coins will be more and more common unless the economy improves. This is due to so many people that have had jars, cans, boxes, etc full of coins laying around for a long time. Now layed off of work, they take those to banks so they can get bills to spend in stores for food. Home invasions are increasing in many areas such as where I live. Coins of any kind are one of the first things taken and they are either dumped into a bank or taken to pawn shops. Most criminals just spend any coins as change regardless of what they are. Piles of old coins are appearing at flea markets also. Gee, I wonder where those came from. People have been arrested lately just following US postal service people or UPS trucks. If a package is left by the door, and no one picks it up right away, POOF, it's gone. Coin, gun, knife, other collectable magazines sticking out of a mail box is just a flag to say break in here, we have valuables.
Summation is start watching your change more now than ever. I've been getting Wheat cents in just normal change lately.

yeah, I know! I don't know why, but I couldn't just let it go again. It's not even good trading material, which is usually what I use my circ finds for.
