Thanks for the pics. This is an environmentally damaged coin, or a cull, worth only face value.

Thanks for the pics. The story is great too. I think you have a coin collector on your hands.

Just read others posts.
I can't believe I said "Thanks for the pics" exactly like Coinfrog said and I know I didn't read his or it hit me subliminal-like.

I disagree. Worth more than face. IMHO

I feel in a good mood right now ,so I'll say that was a great find. you can see the date clear as a bell.
value to you is priceless because you found it buried in the ground with a coin finding machine . Congrats .

It actually looks a lot better than I expected it to look, given where it was found.

I think most of the value is in the story behind its discovery.

That is exactly the good part.......the way it was found. I am trying to teach him stuff that he will want to carry on and do such activities with his kids.....he has a healthy interest in the coin collecting and the antique cars, both of which are my hobbies.
