Something I found on a sidewalk stained by oak leaves and acorns--apparently the natural acids react with the copper in this US dime. So this isn't a serious submission for grading, but it got me thinking--what will "collectable" US coins look like 1000 years from now--will most look like Roman coins today?

That's pretty cool looking; it looks like it's about 1000 years old already.

It sure didn't take 1000 years for this one.
