My Mood:
Holy #$&~! Cash Register find of the YEAR!

So, I went to work today at the bakery in the afternoon.
Of course, when I get a chance I look through the money and crack open some rolls when some coinage gets low.

Anyway, it was about an hour and half before I was going to leave, and I decided to crack open a roll of cents, didn't really need to, but I thought it would be fun (I'm sure other people do that too )

Out pops this:



I thought, "that looks like the reverse of an Indian Head cent! - but maybe it's a foreign coin" (I didn't want to excite myself)

So I flip it over...



yup!!!

Now my oldest coin found in circulation/register
Previous record was a 1919 Wheat Cent.
