It certainly does not have 70 years' worth of wear. Very nice find. __________________ No state shall emit bills of credit, make any thing but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts, coin money . . . - US Constitution, Article 1, Section 10 ANA LM-3799; OHNS LM-59; SUSCC R-4005.

If you keep searching, you tend to find quite a few older ones - but don't expect to be getting that quality on a regular basis!!! __________________ ------------------------------------------------------------------ I don't know what I want, but I know how to get it   07-22-2008, 07:19 AM   #6 (permalink) andy21us Coin Hoarder     Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: TX Posts: 1,139 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by Pocket Change I agree - high xf from the picture.

This is true, I have found 8-38's in the pass few weeks and none have came close to this one in grade. __________________ To honor fallen PJ who have died in the line of Duty, that others may live.   07-22-2008, 11:23 PM   #7 (permalink) jeankay Coin Hoarder     Join Date: Jan 2008 Posts: 698 My Mood: Hi Andy, That is one mighty fine 38p. Congrats! So far I have only found one 38p in circulation, but not as nice as yours. jeankay   07-23-2008, 11:00 PM   #8 (permalink) bruce 1947 Support Or Troops     Join Date: Dec 2005 Location: ARIZONA Posts: 2,320 I think because the way our economy is right now there are a lot of people needing money. So they are getting rid of some rolls or jars of coins they have been saving, roll searching should be very good in some parts of the country right now.   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
