Almost threw this in the recycle bin

Not an awesome find but a nice coin

You recycle coins? Like cans?
What does a coin recycling bin look like?


Nice find by the way!

 

If you saw the way I look through rolls, you would laugh your collective asses off. My recycle bin that I put coins into until I re-roll them is the top of a 25 pack of CD's.

 

Looking at the date, any chance it might be a DDO; possibly like a 1937 DDO-004, 4-O-II-C+VI??? I know your photos were just for showing your find (and a darn nice one at that; just look at the separation of the wheat grain beards), not analysis, but the spread/thickness of the lettering, and especially the "937" looks interesting.

Semper Fidelis

 

Hey, use whatever you have! No big deal there! I throw mine into a plastic folgers can and I put the coppers (to look for varieties later) in a metal Fisher's Popcorn container with the State of Maryland flag and popular sites on the side. Whatever.....you......got! LOL
