ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19197 Posts	Posted 02/22/2023 5:00 pm Yes, much post-strike damage. Has been exposed to environmental elements, may have spent a little time in a fire. May have some dried 'crud' on surfaces from long ago. Has character. Keep it if you like it. If coins could talk. Report this Post to the Staff

bronxguy New Member United States 19 Posts	Posted 02/22/2023 5:23 pm I agree with OP - a well-circulated coin with stories to tell, like this one, is one I'd hold on to for sure. Report this Post to the Staff
