virginiaetrac New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 06/25/2011 5:16 pm Hello All, My Canadian coin knowledge is minimal at best. I just dug a very pretty green Canadian coin here in Virginia USA on my property. 1881 Cent.....Mine has the missing O ...but oddly also has the following inscribed on the face: L.G.R. Aug 85 Anyone know what this LGR may refer to? Any idea if this is a valuable coin? Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff

I think the most interesting thing about the coin is that it was in the ground in Virginia. Report this Post to the Staff
