Saw this on my local news, looks real... http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?section=news/bizarre&id=7631422
Thanks for the link - First thing I've enjoyed watching regarding Elizabethton. lol (It's a NE TN high school sports reference)
From that photo cannot really tell, but appears real. Not that impressive of a coin really, its nice but not that shocking of a find. It always amazes me what coin news that mass media think is worthy of reporting. Must have been a slow news day.
