srcliff Valued Member United States 453 Posts	Posted 01/29/2020 5:40 pm Spotted this right away when I was counting in my cash register the other other morning. I know it's a common date but it might be one of my favorite finds of all time! I know the cell phone pics and my shaky hand don't produce a great pic but if anyone wants to throw a grade up I'd love to know what you think! Report this Post to the Staff

thecoinguy1964 Pillar of the Community United States 1309 Posts	Posted 01/29/2020 6:17 pm Great save! I spotted a V nickel in a till of a local convenience store about 10 years ago while receiving my change. The middle easterner cashier thought he'd been "chingarle" with a foreign coin, so I gladly gave him my nickel in exchange. Report this Post to the Staff
