I had my Walking Liberty collection out and, thinking about recent conversations about finding coins in circulation, I thought I would show my best WLH circulation find. Sometime in the late 40's or early 50's this 1942 P showed up.
Get those memories and share them - with us and any children you may have. Sometimes I think my family gets bored with my excess information about my collection and how I acquired some things. When they inherit these I hope they remember and don't put them in the slot machines.
nice coin now I wish I was 80 years old imagine finding a 1916 D in circulation and still have it that 10 cents just turned into 3,000-4,000 more now.
I had a similar find in the early 50's when I got a Twenty Cent piece in change. The vendor owed me 25 cents change and gave me a Twenty Cent. My Mother let me keep it. They have gone up in value considerably since then.
This one is definitely circulated just giving how I acquired it. There were a lot of very nice coins in circulation back then.
