JoeGlantz1 Valued Member United States 55 Posts	Posted 06/28/2014 1:38 pm Went to trade a coin I had for 90% silvers today at a fleamarket coin shop I know, and I ended up also working in a piece he'd showed me in the past. This is a 1946 walking liberty that was found in the remains of a house fire, it apparently started melting (it's very warped) but couldn't get hot enough and resolidified quickly. I wanted it because of its personality, and it's totally gonna be a new pocket-carry piece. Just thought it might be neat to show you guys. Report this Post to the Staff
