eaglefoot Pillar of the Community United States 6326 Posts	Posted 04/21/2016 07:58 am I keep them regardless of condition. Nice find despite the verdigris (I just don't keep ones like this with the other ones....a few bad ones can spoil the batch!) You did a good thing rescuing this near 100 year old coin from the wild and any further "hard times".... Report this Post to the Staff

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10034 Posts	Posted 04/21/2016 10:52 am Bad condition... sure. But nice find nonetheless. You now belong to the relatively low percentage from a population of over seven billion people who can say they have found a 1920 LWC in circulation! I am always excited by such finds for the sheer novelty and thrill of it. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
