commems CCF Master Historian of USA Commemoratives United States 12279 Posts	Posted 09/27/2016 4:39 pm Sorry to hear that your coin is misplaced. Don't give up on it! You may still come across it. Have you checked your camping gear? Maybe it slipped out of your pocket while you were unpacking the gear and it fell into a piece of equipment. Good luck!

In the dryer after cleaning some camping gear. It had a good wash and dry, but no additional scratches. Much more shine then it had previously. I knew if I posted this post it would show up..and if I hadn't posted this post...it would be still out in limbo. Maybe I should drill a hole in it and wear it as a necklace.

welder Pillar of the Community United States 1037 Posts	Posted 09/28/2016 4:27 pm Sorry to hear about your pocket-piece. What a horrible gut-wrenching sense of loss. My first PP was a 1941 quarter, but after a couple of weeks I replaced it with a 1986 Statue of Liberty $1 proof (impaired). There were too many times where I almost spent the 1941, that's why I went to the silver $. You cannot mistake it for anything else. I still get comments from store clerks when I pull out all my change and they see this huge silver coin among the other coins. I hope you find your Columbus soon. Report this Post to the Staff
