Hello everyone
Found this LMC at an Elementary school play ground today about 2"down in the dirt.It's hard enough to find an Error in circulation much less on a play ground,not worth much but a Error & keeper none the less.Thought y'all would like to see one of my better finds.In my collection it goes

That is a cool find. Congrats! My kids and I hit the school playgrounds too. Usually cash in about $1.50 to $4.00 over 3 playgrounds. They have about $50 stashed so far. About 60 more trips and they will have that detector paid for.

Hi jasper,

I am also on that site and it is great for the metal detector folks! In all the years of metal detecting that I have done, I have never found an error coin! The odds are astronomical! Nice Find!
