Guy in Ken Potter's group bought a small box of coins in 2x2s for basically nothing at a yard sale, this was in it.

What a great find! But from my viewpoint luck is more a statistical thing. See enough coins and some good ones will show up. Yesterday I ran through 14 BU rolls of memorial cents. Found nothing in 13 of them. The one roll with something was a 1972 roll with 5 FS-107 coins mostly MS63/4 with one that might go 65, and three WDDO-011. So yes, it's super lucky to find a coin as amazing as the posted coin, but with enough looking we do find them. Just keep looking and good stuff shows up!
