Today in my pocket change I found an 1864 IHC. I had been a couple places including 7-11, McDonald's and a couple other stores so it could have come from any one of these.

I can remember getting a couple early 1900's IHC's when I was a kid when I would buy a roll of cents for hunting. Of course this was when Wheats were still common and tossed back as often as not...

While not in the best condition, it made my day and is probably the find of the year for me!

That is awesome! Just think about how many places that coin has been to and how many people have held it over the past 150 yrs!
