    Found this coin while out metal detecting. There is something on it that is a rare error. I'm sure of it 99.9%.

    How can you say that?!!? Don't you know how many RARE MINT ERRORS have been destroyed by an acetone soak, leaving a coin that just looks normal? :rolleyes:

    It may have come from the mint that way. Check around for other examples. I'm pretty sure you could find one on ebay or etsy, but it would cost a fortune to buy it.

    I remember 50 years ago and using Testors for models. It got you high if you spent too much time working on the project.

    Happened to me when I was about 11 years old and building a model in my small, unventilated bedroom. I passed out and my face fell on top of the model I was building. I did more damage to that B-25 bomber with my face than German flak ever did!

    Boy, did I have a headache when I woke up.
