Came across a 1979 D quarter that looked and felt unusual. I knew I had something big straight away. Especially when I got a closer look, as I carry my jewelers loupe everywhere I go. I took out my scale and it said 5.21 grams. When dropped on the table it makes a dull thud. I figured it had to be aluminum. I scoured the internet to no avail until 5 months later I just happened to come across a listing of 1970s aluminum amusement tokens. The tokens said "Country Gal" and "Country Kitchen". That was it as I can make out the "Country Gal" on the obverse of the 1979 D quarter. Finally, I can get enough money to have a home and stop living on the streets, then I can see my daughter. Thank you GOD, I knew you hadn't forsaken me. I'll include photos of course, as best I can later today or tomorrow. I'm sorry but I'm not computer savvy to say the least.

I'll post more coins I've came across in the next few weeks. GOD gave me many great coins including, 1969 S DDO, 1943 copper penny, 1997 dime struck on what looks to be a brass planchet, a 1963 nickel fs to name a few. I prayed for a way to get back on my feet to see my daughter and my prayers have been answered.
