sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 03/24/2015 07:24 am Road kill, perhaps by a Cadillac One Lunger, or a very early Model T. I would love to have a coin such as this, in any condition! Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 03/24/2015 4:17 pm Not as bad as some say. You should see my first one. Need a lot of imagination to make out the date. Report this Post to the Staff
garys64wildcat Pillar of the Community United States 593 Posts	Posted 03/24/2015 4:47 pm I have a English 1797 Cartwheel my Grandpa brought from England when he a boy in 1880`s, worn slick. I just wonder where its been before he got it and people who have had that coin. Also brought over 2 farthings 1860 and 1865 Victoria in XF+. They have a lot of history that I will save for my 13yr old grandson to keep them in the family Report this Post to the Staff
jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 2204 Posts	Posted 03/25/2015 12:49 am I find coins like this much more compelling than the same coin in better condition. This coin would have much more interesting stories to tell than its BU sister. Report this Post to the Staff
